This lunch-friendly, veg-packed grain bowl takes loose cues from bibimbap, the Korean rice and veg dish, and relies on a few make-ahead staples to come together fast. The farro, tofu, eggs, dressing, and pickles can all be made up to five days ahead and stored in the fridge. When you’re ready to eat, all that’s left to do is toss in a handful of your favorite sliced or shredded vegetables for a versatile, on-the-fly lunch.
