Greek-Orzo-Pasta-Salad

Home made delicious Greed Salad

I started buying this Greek Orzo pasta salad at Whole Foods several years ago.  It is now over $9 per pound.  I can now make it for a lot less and have so much more!  This is an easy recipe.

Ingredients

1/2 pound Orzo pasta, cooked by directions
Chopped veggies and cheese to taste (I rarely measure for salads, so put in however much you want.)

  • red onion
  • cucumber (peeled, seeds removed)
  • red bell pepper
  • spinach
  • pitted kalamata olives
  • feta cheese crumbles
  • olive oil (a couple of Tablespoons)
  • apple cider vinegar (I use Braggs – just a splash)
  • juice of half a lemon (or mix 1 drop lemon essential oil to 2 Tablespoons water)
  • salt & pepper to taste

Mix and place in fridge for about an hour before serving.  You can always double the recipe for a party. This makes a great side dish and keeps well in the fridge for a few days.
