Orzo Salad

Happy, happy Monday! I hope everyone's week is off to a good start. 

I'm sharing another favorite pasta salad today. Pasta salads are my favorite this time of year! I appreciate how refreshing they are as a side dish, and how easy they are for lunches. This recipe comes from my Aunt Pam, and it's a staple at family gatherings! 

Orzo Salad

Pasta Ingredients:

1 box of Orzo pasta, cooked al dente

1/3 cup Olive Oil 

1/4 cup White Balsamic Vinegar 

2 tsp garlic, minced

1 tablespoon Dijon Mustard

Directions: 

1. Mix your cooked pasta, halved cherry tomatoes, and diced red onion in a bowl. 
2. Mix your dressing ingredients together until everything is incorporated, and then add your dressing to your pasta mixture. 
3. Give everything a really good stir, then add in some fresh basil and feta cheese.
