Orzo Pasta Salad
Prep Time: 15 Min Cook Time:10 Min Ready In:55 Min
Yield 4 servings

Ingredients
1 cup uncooked orzo pasta 1/4 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes 1/2 cup boiling water 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil 1 lemon, juiced and zested 1/2 cup kalamata olives 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese salt and pepper to taste
Directions
Fill a pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the orzo, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.
Place the sun-dried tomatoes into the boiling water in a bowl, and let stand for 10 minutes to plump up. Drain off excess water.
Toss the cooked orzo, sun-dried tomatoes, olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, olives, parsley, and feta cheese together in a bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
