Ingredients:

For the Bowl:

• 1 cup farro, cooked according to package

• 1–2 delicata squash, sliced into half-moons

• dash paprika

• dash coconut sugar or brown sugar

• 1–2 zucchini, sliced

• 2 cups fresh spinach

• 1 ripe avocado, sliced

• 1–2 eggs (poached or fried with a runny center)

• 1 cup cooked chicken (optional – or swap with your favorite protein)

• Olive oil

• Salt + pepper to taste.
  
  

For the Lemon-Garlic Vinaigrette:

• 3 tbsp olive oil

• 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice

• 1 tsp lemon zest

• 1 small garlic clove, finely minced

• 1 tsp Dijon mustard

• 1 tsp honey or maple syrup

• Salt + pepper to taste
  
  

Optional swaps/add-ins:
Brussels sprouts, chickpeas, arugula, kale, sweet potato, quinoa, salmon, tofu, leftover roasted veggies - whatever your fridge offers up.

Instructions:

1. Roast your delicata squash
   Toss the squash slices with a drizzle of olive oil, paprika, coconut sugar, salt, and pepper. Roast at 425°F for 20–25 minutes, until golden and tender.

   2. Cook the farro
   Prepare farro according to package directions. (Pro tip: add a pinch of salt to the cooking water for extra flavor.)

   3. Sauté your veggies
   Warm a splash of olive oil in a skillet.
   Add zucchini until lightly browned, then add spinach until just wilted. Season as you go.

   4. Cook your egg
   Poach or fry your egg so the yolk stays runny and dreamy.

   5. Assemble your bowl
   Spoon farro into each bowl.
   Top with roasted squash, sautéed veggies, avocado, chicken or protein of choice, and your egg.

   6. Dress + enjoy
   Shake or whisk the dressing until glossy and bright. Drizzle generously with lemon-garlic vinaigrette. Let the yolk mingle with the dressing and do its magic.

Make It Yours

This bowl is endlessly riff-able. Swap veggies based on the season. Switch between proteins. Build a double batch of farro and squash on Sunday and mix-and-match all week.
