Every cook needs at least one go to orzo pasta salad that they can make on those days when time is limited or when they just need something simple. Orzo is my favorite pasta shape for salad because it looks great on the plate and it’s almost like you are eating rice. This recipe is simple and the basil pesto dressing is what takes it to higher flavor level.

This orzo pasta salad is great with grilled or broiled fish, chicken or can be eaten on its own. I have found that it tastes even better the next day so it makes for a great lunch to take to work.
