Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup whole farro
  • 12 ounces pumpkin ale
  • ½ cup chicken broth
  • 1 lbs asparagus tripped and chopped into 1 inch sections
  • 2 tbs olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • ½ cup pomegranate seeds
  • 1 cup baby arugula
  • 3 wt oz goat cheese

Instructions
 

  • Add the farro, beer, and broth to a pot over medium high heat. Bring to a low simmer. Simmer until farro is tender but not mushy, about 20 minutes. Drain off any remaining liquid.
  • Preheat oven to 400.
  • Add the asparagus to a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, toss to coat.
  • Roast asparagus at 400 until fork tender, about 8-10 minutes (less for thin asparagus, you still want some firmness, it’s best to under cook rather than overcook).
