We love farro at lunch and dinner, but did you know it also makes a delicious hot breakfast cereal? This recipe, inspired by an idea from one of our patients, is a tasty way to get out of an oatmeal rut. Feel free to get creative with the spices, swap ½ cup berries for the banana, or try almonds in place of the walnuts. Enjoy!
