Steps:
- Make marinade:
- Combine 2 tablespoons olive oil, 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, orange juice, 2 teaspoons minced garlic, chili flakes, and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a bowl and whisk.

Tips
- Choose fresh portobello mushrooms for the best flavor. They should be firm and have a deep, brown color.
- Clean the mushrooms with a damp paper towel before cooking. Do not wash them under running water, as this can make them soggy.
- Brush the mushrooms with olive oil and season them with salt and pepper before grilling. This will help them to cook evenly and develop a delicious flavor.
- Grill the mushrooms over medium heat for 8-10 minutes per side, or until they are tender and slightly charred.
- While the mushrooms are grilling, cook the farro according to the package directions. Once the farro is cooked, let it cool slightly and then fluff it with a fork.
- To make the dressing, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper. Dress the farro with the dressing and toss to combine.
- To assemble the salad, place the grilled portobello mushrooms on a bed of dressed farro. Top with chopped walnuts, crumbled feta cheese, and chopped parsley. Serve immediately.
