Prep Time15 minutes
Cook Time8 minutes
Total Time23 minutes
Servings: 8 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 cup orzo pasta
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • ½ red onion sliced
  • ½ English cucumber diced
  • 4 cups chopped romaine lettuce
  • 4 ounces crumbled feta cheese
  • 1 15-ounce can garbanzo beans drained and rinsed

For the Greek dressing

  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • ¾ cup canola oil
  • ⅓ cup red wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon dried basil
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground pepper

Instructions

  • Place a small pot of water on the stove to boil. Add a tablespoon of salt. Once boiling, add orzo and cook until al dente (should take between 6-8 minutes; check package directions for exact time). Drain pasta. Add to a large bowl with ⅔ cup of Greek dressing (recipe below). Toss to combine. Let the pasta cool before adding the rest of the ingredients.
  • Once the pasta has cooled, add in the rest of the pasta salad ingredients. Season with a little salt and pepper, as needed. Serve immediately or within 12 hours. If making ahead, add in the romaine right before serving.

For the Greek dressing:

  • Add all ingredients to a mason jar. Cover and shake to combine.
