Orzo And Arugula Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Cook pasta according to package directions for al dente. Drain orzo; rinse with cold water and drain well. In a large bowl, combine arugula, feta, almonds, cherries, oil, salt and pepper. Add orzo; toss to coat. If desired, serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain pasta and put the pasta on a large cookie sheet. Drizzle the pasta with 3 tablespoons olive oil, toss, spread out, and set aside to cool.
• Once the orzo is cool, transfer to a large serving bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and toss gently to combine. Serve.

Steps:

• Add the olive oil and onion to a medium skillet over medium heat. Cook until the onion is translucent and soft, about 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and let the onion cool.
• Cook the orzo according to the package directions.
• Grill or boil the corn until cooked and tender, about 5 minutes. Cut the kernels from the cobs.
• Mix together the onions, orzo, cherry tomatoes and corn in a large bowl. Gently fold in the arugula. Drizzle with lemon oil and sprinkle the Parmesan on top.
