I've never been much of a cook, but it's something I'd love to try and get better at. I've got a growing family and as much as freezer food is serving them now, when they're older I'd like to be able to cook them something genuinely nice.

Lately, I've been eating a lot of farro instead of rice, pasta or oatmeal. It has a nice nutty taste and chewy texture that I like.

Mix it up with some veggies like sliced carrots and chickpeas for a complete meal.

Farro is great. For a side dish I tend to cook it in spiced broth (chicken or beef depending on the main course) instead of water. Another one you might like is kamut.
