This was truly a comfort food at its finest. Perfect for these cooler winter days and nights. The creaminess and flavors of this dish will have you oooing and ahhing in delight. It's simple, easy to prepare and just about fool proof. And oh so delicious! I wish everyone a chance to give this a try you will not miss any of the standard animal products typically used in dishes like this. And that I promise you! I served my gratin over a bed of farro but you can use whatever you like or fits into your dietary guidelines. If you’re not gluten intolerant, farro is a wonderful ancient grain to add to your meal plans. It's a lot like barley in taste and texture. Per serving, about 1/4 cup, farro has 290 calories with only 1.5 grams fat, 7 grams of protein and 5 grams of fiber. It will stick with you leaving you feeling satisfied for a good while. I picked up bag of 10 minute farro and it was ready right along with the gratin.
