Roasted Vegetables and Farro Green Goddess Bowl

December 14, 2016 By Patricia 46 Comments

I’ve been obsessed with a few things lately: farro, and roasted vegetables. Both are such healthy food choices, and together they make a filling and delicious meal. Try this Roasted Vegetables and Farro Green Goddess Bowl recipe and see for yourself.

Try this Roasted Vegetables and Farro Green Goddess Bowl recipe for a filling and delicious meal.

I guess you could say I’m obsessed with bowl meals, too, especially judging by my Pinterest boards. I haven’t really made many of them, but the choices are endless — seriously endless!

Healthy, flavorful and filling is the way to describe this Roasted Vegetable and Farro Green Goddess Bowl recipe!

For my Roasted Vegetables and Farro Green Goddess Bowl recipe, I added a dressing that also brings big flavor to the table. Green Goddess dressing is made with a bit of anchovy paste — don’t get worked up by that, unless you love anchovy paste, that is — fresh herbs, garlic, lemon, and some mayonnaise and plain Green yogurt.

Green Goddess dressing make the meal: Try this Roasted Vegetables and Farro Green Goddess Bowl recipe!

Anchovy paste adds a salty and tangy flavor to whatever you use it with. I know people can freak out about anchovies, but I swear, the anchovy paste really adds to the dressing – nothing fishy. If you really feel strongly about it and must leave it out, try replacing it with black Mediterranean-style olives.

One of the vegetables I used for this dish is parsnips. I don’t cook with them often, but that will likely change soon. Parsnips are flavorful and when they’re roasted they turn very soft – quite different than they are in raw form. They taste a little sweet and perfumy to me, and in these pictures, they look a little like French fries!

Toss together a great meal: Roasted Vegetables and Farr Green Goddess Bowl.

I tossed the parsnips them with a sweet potato, and broccoli. Combined with the chewy farro and the herbed Green Goddess dressing – seriously, I’ve found a new favorite meal.

Not only is the bowl recipe delicious and healthy, it’s easy to make with minimal clean up after cooking. I love it!

Eat the leftovers the next day for lunch, cold, straight from the fridge, and don’t forget to spoon on a little more dressing.
