Dietitian's Pick of the Month - Farro

Date: 1/5/2015 - 1/31/2015
Type: Health & Wellness

Your Dietitian's Pick of the Month for January is Farro!

5 REASONS TO EAT FARRO:

  1. A whole grain and excellent source of cholesterol-lowering fiber.
  2. A good source of protein, important for building muscle and feeling full longer.
  3. An earthy, nutty flavor with a firm, chewy texture.
  4. Useful in soups, stews, salads and casseroles or risotto-like dishes.
  5. Easy to digest so the body readily absorbs nutrients.
