Searching around AllRecipes for something healthy to feed my family, I found this recipe for Mexican Orzo Salad.
Wow, what a perfect recipe! Not only is it a cold salad (hello, summer!), and chock full of super foods like beans and peppers, but it is sooo versatile.
The recipe made a huge bowlful, enough to feed my family for dinner and have leftovers for lunch. Here's what we found out:
You can add almost anything to it for variety and it tastes great! Some of us added mushrooms, cucumber, avocado and even blueberries, and all of it tasted so good.
You can warm it up in a tortilla with some shredded cheese and salsa - Yum!
It tastes great in a pita pocket, and would make a great and healthy school lunch this way.
Bottom line, I love this salad, and I feel great about serving it to my family! P.S. I reduced the oil called for in the dressing by 2 TBS and it turned out just fine ;)
Gonna Need Grace
