Cook the farro

Preheat oven to 425°F. Add farro and a pinch of salt to small saucepan, cover with 1 inch cold water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and cook until farro is tender, 18 to 20 minutes.

Add pear, 1 tsp olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper to other side of baking sheet and toss. Roast until cauliflower is tender and chickpeas are beginning to brown, 12 to 18 minutes. (4-serving meal: use 4 tbsp olive oil, 2 tsp olive oil)

3
Toast the nuts
