Orzo Salad



Here is the Orzo Salad recipe that I promised you last week. I came up with this one for our home study. I also have a traditional pasta salad (my mom's recipe) here!

I really like Orzo and this is a great and FAST recipe! Throw it together for your next potluck, small group dinner or just because.

1 box of Orzo pasta, cooked

1 cup cubed Feta cheese

1 cup Italian dressing

½ cup cubed or sliced hard salami

4 ounces black olives, minced

2 heaping tablespoons of tomato pesto (red, not green)

1 can medium artichokes packed in water

Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and place in a large bowl. Add dressing and pesto, mixing well. You want the pasta to absorb the wet ingredients while it’s still hot.


Prepare other ingredients: slice salami, mince olives, cube feta and chop artichokes into bite sized pieces. Once pasta is cooled, add ingredients. Stir well, refrigerate. Serve cold.
