How to Make Dinner Grains

Rinse all grains thoroughly under cold water.
In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup quinoa, 1/2 cup brown rice, 1/4 cup farro, 2 cups water, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 40-45 minutes, or until all the water is absorbed and the grains are tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Fluff with a fork before serving. Garnish with fresh herbs (optional).
Serve hot as a side dish alongside your favorite fish or legume curry, roasted vegetables, or stew.
