ORZO AND SPINACH SALAD
The dressing is what makes this orzo salad recipe special. If you taste it on its own, it seems strong and tangy. But once it's combined with the orzo and other ingredients, magic happens. From the spicy taste of cumin to the minty taste of thyme, you can taste each spice. This salad is cool and full of Mediterranean flavors....

[email protected]I made this salad with quinoa instead of orzo and it was still delicious. I also added some chopped walnuts for extra crunch.
