Orzo salad
Cook 1/2 box of Orzo
While cooking, chop a small onion, half a green pepper, and a tomato and put them into a bowl. Add a small can of sliced black olives and half a container of low fat feta cheese.
When Orzo is done, rinse with cool water and add to bowl. Dress with 2 T lemon juice,1/4 c. olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste. I like a lot of pepper in this.
Mix and chill.
