Kale and Farro Salad with Orange-Avocado Dressing

In a small pot, stir together farro and 1 cup water. Bring to boiling; then reduce heat. Simmer 10 minutes. Drain and set aside. In a skillet sauté the kale and broccoli in 2 tablespoons of water over medium for 5 minutes or until broccoli turns bright green and kale has wilted, adding more water, 1 to 2 tablespoons at a time, as needed to prevent sticking. Drain off any leftover water. For dressing, remove 1 tablespoon zest and squeeze ½ cup of juice from the orange. In a blender, combine orange juice and zest with avocado, cilantro, lemon juice, and garlic. Blend until smooth and very thick. Season with salt and pepper. In a large salad bowl, combine farro, cooked vegetables, bell pepper, tomatoes, carrot, scallions, and cranberries. Mix well. Top with dressing and mix again. Sprinkle with pine nuts (if using). Serve right away. Prep-time: 25 MINUTES / Ready In: 35 MINUTES Makes 7 cups salad + 2 cups mashed sweet potatoes Serving size: ¼ of recipe
