Follow The Directions

01

Step

8 mins

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage, onion, and squash. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion and squash are softened slightly and sausages have browned on one side, about 5 minutes. Turn sausages and add frozen mushrooms; cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms have thawed, about 3 minutes.

02

Step

15 mins

Stir in vegetable broth and farro; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until farro is tender and sausage is cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes, adding hot water to the pan as needed to prevent the mixture from becoming too dry.

03

Step

2 mins

Lower heat and stir in Pecorino Romano cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately, garnished with extra Pecorino Romano cheese.

Feel free to substitute other vegetables like zucchini, bell peppers, or spinach based on your preference and what's in season.
For a vegetarian option, omit the sausage and add a can of drained and rinsed cannellini beans.
If you don't have quick-cooking farro, regular farro can be used, but will require a longer cooking time. Adjust the amount of broth and cooking time accordingly.
