Spring brings fresh flavors, bright colors, and the occasional glimpse of sunshine- well in Oregon anyway. Here are two bright, fresh and flavorful recipes that are packed with nutrients.

Zesty Farro Spring Salad (7 servings)

GET THIS:
ยท 1 cup uncooked farro (soaked in water in the fridge overnight) – I use Bob’s Redmill Brand
ยท 3 cups broth or stock (I use homemade if store bought get low sodium)
ยท 1 cup chopped kale (stems removed and chopped fine)
ยท ยผ cup green onion, sliced thinly
ยท 2 cup green beans, cut into 2โ€ pieces
ยท 1 cup shredded carrots
ยท ยผ cup fresh parsley, roughly chopped
ยท ยผ cup fresh mint, roughly chopped
ยท 4 TB pumpkin seeds
ยท 2 TB fresh lemon juice & 1 TB fresh orange juice
ยท Zest of one orange
ยท 1 TB avocado oil
ยท Sea salt, to taste
ยท Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

DO THIS:
1. Drain farro from being soaked. Add farro and water to a pot on the stove and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover and simmer until tender and most of the liquid has been absorbed about 10-15 minutes. Drain any excess liquid from the farro and dump into a large bowl.
2. Whisk avocado oil, lemon, and orange zest together.
3. Mix all ingredients together and season to taste with salt and pepper.
4. Serve warm right away, or store in the fridge and serve chilled.

Note: This is a fantastic salad to make for and event or gathering! ย You could also use olive oil instead of avocado oil in this recipe. Plus, if you want to make this gluten-free, change out the farro for quinoa, buckwheat groats, or wild rice.

Chia-Seed Pudding (8 servings)

GET THIS:
ยท 1 cups plain, mon-fat Greek Yogurt – I use Wallaby Organic Brand
ยท 3/4 cup chia seeds – I use Bobs Redmill Brand
ยท 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond or cashew milk
ยท 4 TB coconut nectar – I use Coconut Secret Brand
ยท 2 tsp vanilla extract
ยท 1/4 tsp sea salt

DO THIS:
1. Mix all ingredients very well in a large bowl. Cover and store in the fridge overnight.
2. Divide into 8 equal servings and top with a few berries and a TB of your favorite chopped nuts.

Note: This is great to make as a healthy dessert in little plastic cups for an event or gathering! ย You could also use local honey, pure maple syrup or stevia as the sweetener in this recipe (of course this would change the nutritional values.)
