The Late Kobe Bryant is Honored for
His Service to the Community
Kobe Bryant is this year’s recipient of the Los Angeles Area Emmy Governors Award in honor of his philanthropy, community building and inspiration that extended beyond the basketball court. Photo courtesy Los Angeles Lakers.
Swanson® Broth does double duty in this recipe. It replaces the oil for a light take
on a fresh summer pesto and it gives the farro a boost of flavor while it simmers.
Make the pesto ahead of time and toss with farro and veggies just before serving.
