Why you’ll love this summer salad:

Quick: Have this ready in only 20-minutes. Great for when you forgot a dish to bring to your friend’s BBQ Healthy: This summer salad is filled with healthy, nutritious ingredients that give your body so many benefits Versatile: Swap out any of the veggies for whatever you have in your fridge

Ingredient Notes:

Orzo: Orzo is usually found in the pasta section of a grocery store. It’s a form of short-cut pasta shaped like rice and is made from flour. It is generally used for salads or soups but can be substituted for any tiny/small pasta if need be. Spiced Nuts: For this summer salad recipe I used spiced pecans to add a crunch. Any good salad has a crunch on top! My go-to brand is Sante. They make a ton of different quality nuts in several flavors that can be an easy addition to jazz up a simple salad like this. This is also a great way to add more plant-based protein to any meal (or snack).

How to make a summer salad:

How to make a gluten-free summer salad: Make this salad gluten-free by using quinoa or your favorite small-sized pasta instead. How can I make this salad vegan? Enjoy this by using olive oil and swapping the feta with a desired plant-based substitute. Storage: Salad can be kept in the fridge in an airtight container for 2 – 3 days, and stored with dressing on the side for 5 – 6 days
