1 cup wheat berries
2 1/2 teaspoons kosher or sea salt, divided
3/4 teaspoon black pepper, divided
2 whole parsnips (about 12-ounces) peeled, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
4 whole carrots (about 12-ounces) peeled cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
3 cups broccoli florets (about 9-ounces) large pieces split in half, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar
1 tablespoon stone ground mustard

Instructions:

Bring 2-quarts of water and 1-teaspoon salt to a boil. Stir in wheat berries, reduce heat to low; simmer uncovered for 1 hour while preparing remaining ingredients for protein bowl.
Preheat oven to 450°F. In a large mixing bowl, toss together parsnips, carrots, broccoli, 1/2-teaspoon salt, 1/4-teaspoon pepper and 2-teaspoons olive oil, evenly coating vegetables. Place on sheet pan and put on bottom rack in oven, roast 15 minutes. (Sear London broil according to step 3 while roasting vegetables).
Preheat a large cast iron pan on the stovetop. Season London broil with 1-teaspoon olive oil, 1-teaspoon salt and 1/2-teaspoon pepper. Sear over high heat for 3 minutes per side; reserve to a clean plate.
After 15 minutes in oven, reduce heat to 350°F, flip vegetables and add London broil to pan. Place sheet pan on middle rack and roast 8-10 more minutes, or until roast reaches 125°F for medium rare. Allow to rest 5-10 minutes.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together 2-tablespoons olive oil, vinegar, mustard and honey. Reserve 1-tablespoon of vinaigrette for London broil.
Drain wheat berries and toss with vinaigrette. Slice roast thinly against the grain and drizzle reserved vinaigrette over top.
Build protein bowl with wheat berries, roasted vegetables and sliced London broil.
