Orzo Salad
(I don't cook with recipes (maybe why I make some inedible things) so you don't have to be at all exact with this recipe...If you like something put more in or hate something leave it out)
1 pkg. orzo pasta
1 jar marinated artichoke hearts drained and chopped
1 can black olives drained and halved
1 can garbanzo beans aka chick peas drained
1 pint cherry (or better yet grape) tomatoes halved
2-3 stalks green onions/scallions sliced
1 4-6oz. pkg. feta cheese (if you can get one flavored with basil, tomato, or garlic even better) crumbled
1 tsp. dill dried or 2 tblsp. fresh
1 tsp. basil dried or 2 tblsp. fresh
1 clove garlic crushed or minced (more if ya love it)
2 tblsp. olive oil
1/2 lemon juiced
Cook orzo as you would a regular pasta til al dente'. Drain and rinse in cold water. Once cooled place in large bowl. Add all the other ingredients and mix lightly. Refrigerate. Enjoy! Pretty and great for parties and gatherings!
