Orzo Salad – A Fantastic Turkish Orzo Salad Recipe
Orzo salad is one of my savior recipes. You can eat it as a meal when you are too lazy to cook, or you can prepare it as a nice salad to show off your guests. Since orzo is both fulfilling and rich in fiber, it will also go very well with your meat dishes.
