Dietitians' Pick of the Month: Farro

Date: 1/1/2015 - 1/31/2015
Type: Foods

Did you know, farro has been around for over 2,000 years even though it's new to most Americans?  This hearty grain can be used in substitution for any recipe that calls for brown rice or wheat berries.  Farro is also extremely nutritious - with one cup containing 8 grams of cholesterol-lowering fiber and 7 grams of muscle-building protein as well as being a good source of iron.  Stop by the HealthMarket today to pick up this month's Dietitians' Pick of the Mont -h and for recipe ideas using farro, stop by the pharmacy to talk to your Hy-Vee dietitians!
