Recipe: Mediterranean Chicken and Orzo Pasta Salad

Mediterranean Chicken and Orzo Pasta Salad

This is a recipe from the Passionate Penny Pincher Summer Recipe box that I just purchased.  It is even better as leftovers which is the biggest win for me!  Even though it isn't summer (some of you may be getting snow!), this is a great change-up for lunch or a light dinner.

1 lb. grilled chicken breasts, cut into bite size pieces

1 1/2 cups uncooked orzo pasta

6 oz. jar marinated artichoke hearts, drained

1 1/2 cups diced cucumber

1/2 pint grape tomatoes, halved

1/2 cup sliced kalamata olives

1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese

1/4 cup diced red onion

3/4 cup Greek dressing (or to taste)

Cook orzo according to box directions, rinse with cool water, drain.

In a large bowl, combine all ingredients.

Refrigerate at least two hours before serving.
