Farro is often served as a side dish but it’s a great choice for breakfast, too.
In this overnight cereal recipe, nutty whole-grain farro is joined by fresh, sweet blueberries and maple syrup.
Unsalted, toasted almonds add a welcome crunch!

Soak in the refrigerator overnight.
Drain off excess water.
In a small saucepan, combine milk, salt, vanilla and cinnamon.
Stir in farro; reduce heat.
Simmer, covered, 20 minutes or until farro is tender.
Stir in blueberries, 2 tablespoons of the almonds, the maple syrup and lemon peel.
Cover and let stand 5 minutes or until blueberries are warmed.
Spoon cereal into serving dishes.
Sprinkle with the remaining 2 tablespoons almonds.
