Greek Orzo Salad Recipe
This Greek orzo pasta salad recipe is a hit at our house. They love the colors and the flavors that are packed into this dish. In fact, we love orzo so much that we made this Italian Orzo and Sausage Skillet right after! They loved the taste and texture of it! Usually, I have a harder time getting my kids excited about any salad recipe but not this one! Not only is this salad delicious, but my favorite part is that it’s SO fresh tasting. The vegetables complement each other, but then you add that homemade lemon vinaigrette, and it takes this salad up a notch! It adds a bold flavor and fresh taste. This salad goes with just about every meal and will be a hit with all your guests!
Ingredients in Greek Orzo Salad
The veggie ingredients in this salad are healthy and combine to make a delicious overall flavor. All of the exact ingredients are on the recipe card at the bottom of the post.
Orzo Pasta: You can cook up your pasta while you are cutting up all of your vegetables. I always cook my pasta at al dente for the perfect texture. Cherry Tomatoes: I like to slice my cherry tomatoes in half, so they are easier to eat. You can also use grape tomatoes instead. English Cucumber: I didn’t peel my cucumber, but you can if you prefer. Kalamata Olives: You can also use black olives, but I love the color and taste of the kalamata olives. Medium Red Onion: Dice up the red onion so that you don’t have large pieces in the salad. Feta Cheese: I LOVE feta cheese, which adds a delicious texture to this salad. Baby Arugula: I like to combine pasta and greens into a salad. Fresh Dill and Parsley: Finely chop the dill and parsley to blend well in the salad. Lemon Vinaigrette: You can buy this at the store, but I love making it at home using this recipe!
Let’s Make a Salad!
This Greek orzo salad takes less than 20 minutes from start to finish. It’s easy and delicious… What more can you ask for? I know that you will love it!
Dressing: Another dressing that I like to use is Greek Salad Dressing! It adds in a totally different flavor but is also delicious! Chickpeas: Try adding chickpeas as an additional ingredient. You can easily cook them up in the air fryer with this recipe and then toss them in! Herbs: Try adding in some fresh mint or fresh basil instead of dill and parsley. It gives it a whole new (and equally delicious) flavor.
