1 ½ cups uncooked orzo ½ cup feta cheese crumbled 1 english cucumber sliced and quartered 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved ¼ cup red onions thinly sliced ¼ cup katamala olives halved Greek Lemon Dressing: ⅓ cup olive oil 3 tablespoons lemon juice fresh 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar to taste 1 clove garlic pressed or minced 1 teaspoon oregano 1 tablespoon dill fresh, finely chopped 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
Cook orzo according to package directions until al dente. Drain, set aside to cool completely.
Mix all ingredients for dressing in a jar.
In a large mixing bowl add all vegetables, orzo, and dressing. Toss to combine.
Allow Greek orzo pasta salad to sit for at least 1 hour in the fridge before serving.
If you prefer a sweeter dressing, add less red wine vinegar to cut back on acidity. If vinaigrette is too tart, add a little more sugar.
