    Toss the warm farro with the dressing before it fully cools — warm grains absorb the dressing's flavor much better than cold ones.

    2. Combine: In a large bowl, combine the farro, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and vegan feta.
    3. Make the Dressing: Whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
    4. Dress & Toss: Pour the dressing over the salad and toss well.
    5. Add Herbs & Serve: Fold in the fresh parsley and serve warm or chilled.
