Autumn Grain Bowl with Roasted Root Vegetables

A comforting and nutrient-dense bowl featuring roasted autumn vegetables, chewy farro, and a creamy maple-tahini dressing.

  • Total Time: 60 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

1 cup semi-pearled farro
2 cups vegetable broth
1 large sweet potato, cubed
2 large carrots, sliced into rounds
1 cup Brussels sprouts, halved
1 red onion, cut into wedges
3 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp dried thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
2 cups shredded kale
1/4 cup pepitas (pumpkin seeds)
1/4 cup tahini
1 tbsp maple syrup
1 tbsp lemon juice
1–2 tbsp warm water

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). On a large baking sheet, toss the cubed sweet potato, carrots, Brussels sprouts, and red onion with olive oil, thyme, salt, and pepper.
Step 2: Spread the vegetables in a single layer and roast for 30-35 minutes, or until tender and caramelized, flipping halfway through.
Step 3: While vegetables roast, bring vegetable broth to a boil in a medium pot. Add farro, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes until tender. Drain any excess liquid.
Step 4: In a small bowl, whisk together the tahini, maple syrup, and lemon juice. Add warm water one tablespoon at a time until the dressing is smooth and pourable.
Step 5: Place the shredded kale in a large bowl and massage with a tiny drop of olive oil for 1 minute until softened.
Step 6: Assemble the bowls by dividing the cooked farro and massaged kale among four bowls. Top with the roasted root vegetables.
Step 7: Drizzle the maple-tahini dressing over each bowl and garnish with toasted pepitas before serving.

Notes

Feel free to swap farro for quinoa for a gluten-free option.
