I love a fabulous pasta salad, but this chickpea orzo salad is one of my faves. It is super fresh and light, which makes it the perfect Spring salad! I ate this for lunch literally all week and preferred it cold. Enjoy!
1 cup uncooked orzo
1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 cucumber, chopped
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese (I used fat free and may or may not have had a heavy hand)
1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
1 red onion, diced (I used almost the whole onion)
For the Dressing:
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 lemons, juiced
1 clove garlic, minced
Salt and black pepper, to taste
