Recipe: Orzo Salad
I don’t post a lot of salads on this site because I think salads are barely a recipe but this one is just specific enough that I think maybe it’s time to post a few of these. This pasta-based salad features no mayo but instead a healthy mix of vegetables, chickpeas, feta, and a very basic mustard-lemon vinaigrette. You can make this within 30 minutes including the dressing while the pasta cooks. Delicious hot or cold this is a great summer food but it’s also really to eat a warm salad in the winter too.
Mix together all of the ingredients for the dressing in a bowl and set aside.

Boil a pot of water and then cook orzo for about 8 minutes until it is soft but not mushy. Drain pasta and rinse under cold water so it doesn't stick together.
3
Add the pasta to a large bowl, top with all of the chopped sundries and serve with the dressing on the side.
