Farro Salad with Roasted Cauliflower and Prosciutto
1 lbs farro, rinsed and drained *
2 TBsp chicken base
2 heads of Cauliflower
1 shallot, chopped
3 cloves of garlic, chopped
1/2 pound prosciutto, diced**
1 can garbanzo beans drained and rinsed
Olive oil
Salt and Pepper TT (to taste)
1 lemon zested and juiced
1/2 bunch of parsley (FLAT leaf) *****
4 sprigs of thyme leaves

If you want to add more flavor you could add more garlic, some pesto, or grimalata (whatever that is)

On a large sheet pan arrange cauliflower evenly, drizzle with OO, sprinkle garlic and shallots over the top of the cauliflower and season with salt and pepper. Bake at 400 for about 20-30 minutes.
To remove some of the starch pre rinse your farro
In a large sauce pan add chicken base and farro (or quinoa/rice). Cover farro with liquid by 1 inch. Bring to a boil, then turn heat down to a simmer, let cook for about 20 minutes or until tender but chewy. Drain Farro and place in a bowl, add prosciutto, beans, lemon, cauliflower and herbs. Season with salt and pepper to taste, serve with fish.

Notes:
* Can be replaced with quinoa, or even rice
** Prosciutto is raw meat, and I didn't love the texture, and part of me couldn't get over the 'raw' part of it, I tried it with bacon the second time and it was really good
*** can add cheese feta, blue...etc
****it can be a Greek dish with cucumbers and feta
*****Flat leaf is for taste, curly leaf for decoration
