Ingredients
- ½ cup balsamic vinegar (or balsamic glaze)
- 2 med zucchini (sliced in ¼-inch strips)
- 1 pound asparagus (trimmed, and chopped into 2" pieces)
- 2 tablespoon olive oil (as needed)
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper (ground)
- 4 cups cooked farro (farro, barley, quinoa, couscous, or brown rice work well)
- 8 oz. burrata
- 1 cup basil leaves (loosely packed)
Instructions
Prepare Balsamic Glaze
- Add the balsamic vinegar to a small sauce pan. Heat over medium until the vinegar comes to a boil. Continue to cook until the volume is reduced by half. Remove from the heat and cool.
Build the Grain Bowl
- For grilling: toss the asparagus and zucchini in the olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the vegetables on medium heat until cooked through with a bit of char. Use a grill basket if you have one.
- For broiling: toss the asparagus and zucchini in the olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Preheat your broiler and line a sheet pan with foil. Arrange the vegetables on the sheet pan and broil about 5 minutes per side or until vegetables are tender and a bit blistered.
- Place a bed of cooked farro or other grains in the bottom of each bowl. Tear apart the burrata and distribute between the four bowls.
- Add the cooked zucchini and asparagus over the top of the burrata and sprinkle with torn basil leaves.
- Drizzle the bowl with the balsamic glaze and season with a sprinkle of salt and freshly ground pepper and serve!
