    This dish was easy to pull together on a weeknight and overall tasty. I should have toasted my farro a little longer, so make it more crispy and less chewy, but I was worried I was going to burn it. The horseradish sauce was super good and it even got a thumbs up from my five year old.

    The horseradish cream was definitely the best part of this recipe. Subbed red wine vinegar for apple cider vinegar. I do like the combo of kielbasa and purple cabbage so that part was fine too. I think the farro didn't hold up well leftovers wise as it got very dried out and chewy as you toast the grains in the oven. Overall good concept but might just skip the part of crisping the grains. Or maybe just toast half the grains instead.

    I agree with bernalgirl that this is just okay. It tastes like farro with kielbasa and cabbage, nothing more, nothing less. The horseradish sour cream is a nice touch but ultimately didn't make this rather boring dish more interesting.

    I really wanted to like this but it was just ok to my palate and my family said they’d like it better with potatoes as a hash. I prepped the farro and suggested lentils in the morning, and diced the cabbage and sausage at lunchtime so I only needed to combine the ingredients and broil at dinner. It cooked as directed and the horseradish cream really makes it, but it didn’t have the ease-to-wow ratio to make again. I am enjoying the leftovers for lunch however, and all in all it feels virtuous if that’s what you’re going for.
