Ingredients
  • 2 cups cooked farro
  • 2 cups cooked chickpeas
  • 2 leeks, cleaned and thinly sliced crosswise
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 tbsp lemon juice

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 425 deg F.
  2. Place chickpeas in a bowl and stir in the garlic, lemon juice, 1 tbsp olive oil, a pinch of salt, and (optionally) the chili flakes. Mix and set aside.
  3. Toss leeks with the remaining oil and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Spread out on a baking sheet and roast in oven until golden brown, taking care not to burn them, about 20 minutes. Toss them half way through.

  5. Garnish with the parsley and serve warm.
