Steps:
- Prepare the orzo according to the package directions, taking care to salt the water generously. Drain and set aside to cool to room temperature.
- In a large bowl, combine the orzo with the rest of the ingredients and 1/8 teaspoon salt. Use your clean hands or two large spoons to mix it carefully. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
- Refrigerate the pasta salad for at least 15 to 20 minutes before serving.
MEDITERRANEAN ORZO SALAD
This light and refreshing cold pasta salad is loaded with the flavors of the Mediterranean, and pairs well with grilled proteins, such as fish, pork, chicken or steak. If you make this in advance, reserve a bit of the dressing to add right before serving, as the pasta has a tendency to soak up the dressing as it sits over time.

- Whisk garlic, olive oil, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl to make the vinaigrette. Drizzle over the orzo mixture and toss lightly to combine. Add basil and parsley and mix well. Let sit for 20 minutes for flavors to blend, stirring occasionally.

Steps:
- Pour the broth into a heavy large saucepan. Cover the pan and bring the broth to a boil over high heat. Stir in the orzo. Cover partially and cook until the orzo is tender but still firm to the bite, stirring frequently, about 7 minutes. Drain the orzo through a strainer. Transfer the orzo to a large wide bowl and toss until the orzo cools slightly. Set aside to cool completely.
- Toss the orzo with the beans, tomatoes, onion, basil, mint, and enough vinaigrette to coat. Season the salad, to taste, with salt and pepper, and serve at room temperature.
- Mix the vinegar, lemon juice, honey, salt, and pepper in a blender. With the machine running, gradually blend in the oil. Season the vinaigrette, to taste, with more salt and pepper, if desired.

ORZO SALAD
The original recipe calls for shrimp, but since we don't eat shellfish, I changed it to use chicken. From Light & Tasty. I haven't tried it yet, but I plan to soon. If you'd prefer the shrimp, substitute an equal weight of medium cooked shrimp, peeled, deveined, and cut into thirds, for the chicken.
