Tomato Farro Risotto

with Swiss Chard and Tofu “Feta”

Bright, fresh flavors of oregano, tomatoes, lemon, and garlic come together in this Mediterranean delight.

INSTRUCTIONS

1
Start the tofu feta

Peel 2 cloves garlic. Combine the garlic, apple cider vinegar, 1 cup water, and 1 tsp salt in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Drain the tofu and cut into 1 inch cubes. Once the vinegar mixture is boiling, add the tofu and reduce heat to low. Gently simmer tofu until Step 3.

2
Simmer the risotto

Peel and dice the onion. Peel and mince the remaining 2 cloves garlic. Place a large nonstick skillet over medium heat with 2 tbsp olive oil. Add the diced onion, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook until softened, about 4 minutes. Add the farro and stir until toasted, about 1 minute. Add the tomatoes and 2 cups water and cook until the farro is tender, about 18 to 22 minutes.

3
Marinate the feta

Chop the oregano leaves and add them to a medium bowl. Zest the lemon. Add the zest and the juice from half the lemon to the bowl along with the nutritional yeast, dried thyme, ½ tsp salt, and a pinch of pepper. Drain the tofu and add it to the bowl. Toss well to combine and place in the refrigerator until you’re ready to serve.

4
Prepare the garnishes

Thinly slice the Swiss chard stems and roughly chop the leaves. Cut the remaining lemon half into wedges.

5
Add the greens

Once the farro is tender, add the Swiss chard stems and leaves and stir to combine. Cook until the greens are bright and tender, about 3 to 4 minutes. Taste and season with salt and pepper.

6
Serve

Scoop the tomato farro risotto into large bowls and top with the tofu feta, crumbling it a bit with your hands.
