We are heading towards the fall season and some of you might still have a ton of tomatoes from the garden. This is a very easy salad to try with those tomatoes. It is filling, healthy and the farro adds a nice texture to the salad. I have used grape tomatoes, but feel free to use any kind. Off to the recipe.
