Ingredients - Serves 4
- Freshly ground black pepper - To taste
- Fresh basil - A handful, chopped
- Balsamic vinegar - 1 tablespoon
- Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
- Eggplant - 1 small, sliced

- Zucchini - 1 large, sliced
- Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
- Water - 3 cups

Let's Get Started
- Rinse the farro under cold water, then add it to a pot with the water and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 25-30 minutes, or until the farro is tender.
- While the farro is cooking, preheat your grill or grill pan over medium heat.
- Toss the sliced vegetables in the olive oil, then grill them until they're tender and have nice grill marks, about 3-4 minutes per side.
- Once the vegetables are grilled and the farro is cooked, toss them together in a large bowl. Drizzle with the balsamic vinegar, then add the chopped basil and freshly ground black pepper. Toss everything together until it's well combined.
- Serve the farro and grilled vegetables warm or at room temperature.
