I just added a new Greek Orzo Summer Salad to my MFP friendly cooking blog! To find more awesome low cal recpies, check out my blog at: http://lowcalcook.blogspot.com/
Ingredients:
- 1 box of orzo pasta
- 1/2 container of red cherry tomatoes
- 1/2 container of yellow cherry tomatoes
- 1/4 purple onion
- fresh basil leafs
- 1 cup of pesto
- 1/2 cup of corn relish
- 1 cup of frozen peas (or pigeon peas)
- 6 oz of crumbled feta cheese
Directions:
Cook the orzo pasta as instructed on box. While the pasta is cooking, begin to chop up the tomatoes (yellow and red), onion and basil leafs. Once pasta is finished cooking, drain and place in a mixing bowl. Add the pesto and corn relish and mix well. Add the chopped up tomatoes, onion, basil leafs and frozen peas. Mix well. Let this sit in the refrigerator for 3 hours. Once you are ready to serve, mix up the mixture and garnish with the crumbled feta cheese. Yummmy!
