Orzo Salad

Perfect as a side or just as a light dinner. Dang I love summer.

You’ll need:

• 1 lb orzo
• 1/ chopped red bell pepper
• 1/4 chopped red onion
  
• 2 garlic cloves minced
  
• 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  
• Extra virgin olive oil
  
• Red wine vinegar
  
• 1 tsp salt
  
• 1 tsp cracked black pepper
  
• Juice of one lemon
  
• 2 cups baby arugula

Directions:

1. Cook the orzo strain and put in a bowl.
2. Add 1/2 cup olive oil and 1/4 cup of red wine vinegar and toss with all the ingredients except the arugula.
3. Place in the fridge covered with plastic wrap and allow this to chill for a couple hours. Right before you serve the salad add the arugula, lemon juice and toss.
