Farro And Spinach Salad With Air-Fried Beets
Crispy beet slices add color and crunch to this luscious greens-and-grains salad. The chewiness of farro works well alongside juicy pears and crunchy beet chips. Red onion adds just enough sharpness to tie things together, and a drizzle of tangy orange vinaigrette takes it over the top. Writes a fan, “This salad is filling, refreshing and delish!”
With air-fried beets, tangy orange dressing, and chopped fresh pears, this salad packs a fruity punch with every bite. The secret to crispy beet chips is slicing them ultra thin: A sharp knife works, but a mandoline makes it even easier.
INGREDIENTS
- ⅓ cup orange juice
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts, toasted
- 2 teaspoons pure maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 2 medium-size red beets, peeled and cut into ⅛-inch-thick slices
- 6 cups fresh baby spinach
- 3 cups chilled cooked farro
- 2 fresh pears, cored and chopped
- ¼ cup chopped red onion
INSTRUCTIONS
- For dressing, in a small blender place the first five ingredients (through mustard). Cover and process until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
- Preheat air fryer to 350°F. In a medium bowl toss beets with 2 Tbsp. of the dressing. Arrange beets in air fryer, overlapping slightly. Air-fry about 20 minutes or until evenly browned and ruffled- looking. (Beets may not be crisp). Transfer beets to paper towels and let stand 10 minutes. (Beets will crisp as they cool.)
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl toss together spinach, farro, pears, and onion. Drizzle with the remaining dressing; toss to coat. Top servings with beet chips.
