Confetti Orzo Salad

 Sorry for the carb overload today, but these are two of my favorite pasta recipes! Orzo is great because you can use a very small amount and pack the dish with veggies. I used leftover roasted peppers and spinach that I found at a farmers market. Feel free to add corn or other vegetables from your fridge! Serves 6
Ingredients:

1/2 cup orzo pasta

2 cups fresh spinach, chopped and stems removed

4 Roma tomatoes chopped

1 clove garlic, minced

1 large red pepper and 1/4 large white onion, grilled (I tend to stick veggies in aluminum foil with a little oil on the grill for 8 minutes) and thick chopped 
1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
salt and pepper to taste

Boil water and cook orzo according to the box directions

In a large bowl, combine spinach, feta, tomatoes, oil, garlic, and grilled veggies

Pour drained, but not rinsed orzo into the bowl. This will make the spinach wilt and the tomatoes warm up

Add salt and pepper

Toss and serve
