This Greek Orzo Salad is the perfect side dish for summer grilling!

One half cup is only 3 points per serving.

If you grilled a skinless chicken breast, you could even have one whole cup for only 6 points. It’s very filling and delicious!

Even though it’s a Greek salad the taste of lemon gives it a summer like taste. It’s so refreshing!

The Ingredients

Orzo
English cucumber
Cherry tomatoes
Red onion
Reduced-fat feta cheese
Lemon
Extra virgin olive oil
Red wine vinegar
Oregano
Salt and pepper

This orzo salad has some typical Greek ingredients. Cucumber, tomatoes, red onion, oregano – which are all zero points!

Of course I had to add some feta cheese, I bought the reduced-fat feta.

My orzo took about 8 minutes to cook so while that’s cooking I cut up the cucumber, tomatoes and onion.

I also made the dressing, which is very easy.

I used a lemon juicer similar to this one:

I absolutely love it! I make salad dressing quite often and it comes in handy. After I squeeze the lemon, I take the lid off and add the rest of my ingredients.

No need to dirty another jar!

Once the orzo was drained I put it in a mixing bowl and added the dressing. Then I added the rest of my ingredients.

You can eat it right away or let it sit in the fridge for an hour.
