Black Bean and Farro Salad

While the faro cooks drain and rinse the beans. Finely chop the cilantro. Halve, peel, and mince the shallot.

Make the cilantro vinaigrette: in a large bowl, combine the cilantro, shallot, and 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar. Whisk in 2 tablespoons olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

Halve, pit, and dice the avocado. Cut the apple into ½-inch cubes, discarding the apple core. Toss the apple into the vinaigrette.

When the farro is ready, toss it into the vinaigrette along with the black beans. Season with salt and pepper.
