Orzo Salad with Feta

Orzo Salad with Feta, Orzo Salad with Feta
Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

This variation of orzo salad with feta was inspired by several different recipes I looked at online and ultimately ended up being based on ingredients I had in the fridge at the time!   Most recipes I found have red onion in them...but I didn't have any left...so put in a spring onion instead!

The salad is full of flavour...each mouthful can be different with salty hits from the olives and feta, to sweetness from the vine tomatoes and roasted peppers...and finally a herby hit from the fresh oregano - it's delicious!

It's a great dish to serve at a buffet, at a BBQ or to take on a picnic.   Leftovers are great to enjoy for lunch too.

Tips

  • Feel free to change any of the ingredients, depending on what you have in the fridge!
  • This orzo salad with feta recipe is easily adapted if you’re cooking for less or more people.
