This trencher tastes and feels like a warm hug. It has all the makings of a perfect fall meal, right lanugo to the root vegetables drizzled in maple syrup and cinnamon, roasted to tender perfection.

The farro offers a nice transpiration in texture from brown rice or couscous, but you can really use any grain you have in your pantry. Top it all off with fresh, diced world and toasted pumpkin seeds for an autumnal meal you’ll return to then and again.
