I just love the healthy recipes using orzo to make salads. It is one of those salads that adapts to any vegetable, or most meats and cheese, for that matter.
I am going to use Sun-dried tomato orzo today for our Confetti Orzo Salad.
1/4 cup finely chopped scallions
INGREDIENTS:
1 1/2 cups Sun-dried Tomato Orzo
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
3 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1/2 tsp grated lemon zest (peel)
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper
1 garlic clove minced
1 medium carrot, diced into 1/8″ pieces
1 1/4 cup finely diced red, green and yellow bell pepper
1/2 cup peeled, English cucumber, diced finely
1/4 cup finely chopped scallions
1/4 cup finely chopped red onion 1/4 cup finely chopped Italian flat parsley
NOW FOLLOW ME:
Cook orzo in skillet with enough water to boil until tender (10 minutes should do the trick)
Drain using a wire mesh strainer; rinse under cool water.
Whisk olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, sea salt, freshly ground pepper and minced garlic until blended nicely.
Toss diced and chopped vegetables, orzo and dressing together.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Voila! Yummy salad is prepared.
