Ingredients

For the bowl:

1 cup broccoli florets
1/2 zucchini, sliced
5 thick asparagus spears, bottoms trimmed
Grapeseed oil, for drizzling
3-4 tablespoons canned chickpeas
1 scant cup of cooked farro, or other grain of choice
1 cup shredded kale, stems removed
Pepita seeds, for garnish

For the sauce:
1 small avocado
¼ packed cup cilantro
¼ packed cup parsley
½ jalapeño, seeds and veins removed
1 clove garlic
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon lime juice
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoon Califia Farms Oat Barista Blend
1 teaspoon kosher salt

Fresh pepper

Directions

Heat oven to 425°F. Place the broccoli, zucchini, and asparagus on a small or medium baking sheet and drizzle with a bit of grapeseed oil, then season with a few pinches of salt and pepper.

Roast in the oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the broccoli has started to brown.

For the dressing, place the avocado, cilantro, parsley, jalapeño, garlic, white wine vinegar, lime juice, olive oil, Califia Farms Oat Barista Blend, salt, and pepper, into a large jar and blend until smooth with an immersion blender, regular blender, or food processor.

Taste and season the dressing with additional salt as needed. If you’d like a thinner dressing, simply blend in a few more tablespoons of Oat Barista Blend until desired texture is achieved.

Begin assembly by adding the farro and kale to a large bowl. Once cooled, add the roasted veggies, chickpeas, and a hearty drizzle of the dressing.

Garnish with roasted pepitas and enjoy! Leftover dressing can be stored in a sealed container in the fridge for up to three days.
