Orzo pasta is a soup shape that can also be incorporated into pasta salads. Allow your orzo to cool completely on a sheet pan drizzled with olive oil. This will allow the orzo to not overcook. Once ready to serve, toss the orzo with Creamy Genovese Basil Pesto, sundried tomatoes, lemon, olives, capers, cherry tomatoes, feta cheese and basil.
