Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup cooked farro $0.25
  • 1/2 cup milk (dairy, soy, or almond) $0.19
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract $0.07
  • 1/2 tsp brown sugar, maple syrup, or honey $0.02
  • 1 banana $0.21
  • 2 Tbsp chopped walnuts $0.29

Instructions

  • Add the cooked farro and milk to a bowl. Microwave on high for one minute (watching to prevent overflow) then stir. Cook for 2 minutes more, in 30 second intervals, stirring in between. After 3 minutes total, the farro should have absorbed some of the milk, be softer in texture, and the milk slightly more starchy and thick.
  • Stir in the vanilla extract and sweetener (brown sugar, maple syrup, or honey).
  • Slice the banana and place it on top. Sprinkle the chopped walnuts over the bowl, and enjoy.
