Farro is an excellent source of fiber, which naturally improves our digestion of food. The grain is a first-rate source of magnesium and iron, too.
Farro usually takes 30 to 40 minutes to cook, so thank goodness Trader Joe's brought us a 10-minute version.
In a few minutes, you can cook stir-frys, make a farro risotto, create homemade veggie burgers, or concoct a mixed-ingredient salad.
A ¼ cup serving of farro will also provide 6 grams of protein. But like all grains, farro is comparatively high in carbohydrates, which aren't always the best for you, so just be mindful of portion sizes.
A package costs just $1.79.
