Follow The Directions

01

Step
10 mins

For the Caesar dressing, combine red wine vinegar, anchovy fillets, and garlic in a blender. Process until nearly smooth. Add Greek yogurt, extra-virgin olive oil, Dijon mustard, and sugar; blend until completely smooth. Refrigerate until ready to use. (Prep time: 10 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

To prepare the croutons, toss Italian bread cubes with melted butter in a bowl, ensuring they are evenly coated. Add grated Parmesan cheese and toss again to combine. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

03

Step
10 mins

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the bread cubes, turning occasionally, until they are beautifully golden brown, approximately 10 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool; they will continue to crisp up as they cool. (Cook time: 10 minutes)

04

Step
10 mins

In a large bowl, gently stir together the cannellini beans, baby kale, cooked farro, chopped red bell pepper, shredded radicchio, Parmesan cheese, peperoncini peppers, and thinly sliced shallot. (Prep time: 10 minutes)

05

Step
5 mins

Pour the prepared Caesar dressing over the salad mixture and toss gently to coat all ingredients evenly. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

06

Step
30 mins

Cover the salad and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 days, to allow the flavors to meld together beautifully. (Chill time: 30 minutes minimum)

07

Step
2 mins

Just before serving, top the chilled salad generously with the homemade croutons for added crunch and flavor.

For an extra layer of flavor, try grilling the red bell pepper before chopping. This will add a smoky sweetness to the salad.
If you don't have farro on hand, quinoa or another grain of your choice would work well as a substitute.
Feel free to adjust the amount of peperoncini peppers to your desired level of spiciness.
