Betty's Greek Orzo Salad

Betty demonstrates how to make Greek Orzo Salad.
This recipe was inspired by the Greek Orzo Salad that I ordered for lunch during my family's recent visit to Windy Corner Market. The salad I ordered was great, and this is an attempt at replicating the salad.
Greek Orzo Salad
4 oz. orzo pasta, uncooked (I actually cooked 8 ounces, but only needed half of the amount I had cooked.)
1 tablespoon olive oil
¼ red bell pepper, chopped (about ½ cup)
½ cup green onion tops, sliced
½ cup jarred kalamata olives, drained
2/3 cup feta cheese, crumbled
1 tablespoon light olive oil
¼ cup raspberry vinaigrette (You may substitute white vinegar.)
Cook 4 ounces of orzo pasta according to package directions. Drain. Cool orzo by running cold water over the cooked orzo in a colander. Place the drained, cooled orzo in a mixing bowl and set aside. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over low to medium heat. Add ½ cup chopped red bell pepper and ½ cup green onion tops. Saute about 3 minutes, until soft, but still colorful. Add sautéed red bell pepper and onion tops to orzo in mixing bowl. Add ½ cup kalamata olives and 2/3 cup feta cheese crumbles and stir. Add 1 tablespoon light olive oil and ¼ cup raspberry vinaigrette. Mix thoroughly, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until ready to use. Serve onto a nice serving plate. Enjoy!!! --Betty :)
