Winter Fruit, Yogurt & Farro Parfaits

• 1/2 cup farro
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 cup chopped walnuts lightly toasted
• 1/4 cup pitted dates chopped
• 1 1/2 cups plain greek yogurt or any other yogurt of choice, I used a yogurt here with 4% milkfat
• 1 1/2 tablespoons honey
• 2 oranges segmented and cut into 3/4-inch pieces, I used 1 navel orange and 1 Cara Cara orange
• 2 Fuyu persimmons ripe, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
• 1 handful pomegranate arils

1. Cook the farro: Bring about 3 quarts of water to a boil in a 4 quart saucepan. Add farro and 1 t. salt. Boil until the farro is tender, about 25-30 minutes. Drain the farro and let cool to room temperature before proceeding with the recipe. When cool, toss the farro with the toasted walnuts and chopped dates.
2. In a small bowl, mix together the yogurt and honey. In another small bowl, toss together the citrus and persimmons.
3. In the bottom of a glass, layer 1/4 c. of the farro mixture, followed by 1/4 c. of the yogurt mixture, 1/4 c. of the fruit sprinkled with a few pomegranate arils, then another 1/4 c. layer of yogurt. Repeat the layers, ending with a layer of fruit on top.
