orzo salad

Rice-shaped noodle bowl

Orzo salad is a cold dish built around orzo—small, rice-shaped pasta—mixed with vegetables, herbs, and vinaigrette.

Mediterranean versions typically include tomatoes, cucumbers, olives, and feta cheese.

Like other pasta salads, it's a staple at potlucks and summer gatherings: I'm bringing orzo salad to the barbecue.
