I’m on a roll with adding fruit into my mid-day meals!

If you haven’t tried the watermelon & feta combination yet, you have to get on it. It’s a perfect sweet and salty mix that makes for a different twist on your usual lunch.

If you follow me on Instagram and watch my stories, then you know that I am a total watermelon lover. It’s one of my favorite warm weather fruits (although, if I’m being honest, I really love them all! It’s part of why I love summer so much – the produce is some of my favorite!).

And if you’ve read this blog for a while, then you know my Greek blood runs deep when it comes to feta.

Enter this watermelon & feta grain bowl. I’ve done watermelon & feta salads before but I wanted to bulk this up enough to be a meal that could stand alone on it’s own.

Farro was a natural choice to add – it’s nutty, slightly chewy and full of filling fiber. I also threw in some chickpeas (though chicken would also work!), red onions and arugula.

I kid you not when I tell you that I literally said “this is SO good” out loud upon my first bite. That feeling remained until my very last bite.

It’s hard to describe why it’s so delicious – it’s just something you have to experience to understand. It’s just the perfect combination of flavors and textures. Not to mention it’s SO easy to make. You can prep the farro over the weekend and then all you have to do some mid-day on weekdays is assemble!
