Answers:
Pasta salad that can be served at room temp. I like making one that's vegetarian-friendly, but will still appeal to us carnivores. Here's one that a friend of mine came up with and that I've made for a couple of pot luck that have been very successful:
1 lb of orzo cooked al dente
2 roasted red bells diced 1/4 inch dice (skins and seeds removed)
1 small (or 1/2 large) red onion 1/4 inch dice
3 tomatoes 1/4 inch dice
1 English Cucumber or regular cucumber seeds removed 1/4 inch dice
1/2 cup of pitted black olives cut into slivers or halved.
1/4 lb of feta crumbled
6 tbs of extra virgin olive oil
Juice of 1 large lemon
4 tbs of chopped fresh marjoram
1/2 tsp of red pepper flakes
Salt and black pepper to taste.
Combine all ingredients in a bowl and toss well. For best results combine ingredients while the orzo pasta is still warm.
