Tossed with a zesty lemon and garlic vinaigrette, every bite delivers a fresh, sunshine-filled hit of Mediterranean goodness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ready in under 30 minutes, this Mediterranean orzo salad is exactly the kind of easy, feel-good meal I love to have on repeat. It\u2019s light yet satisfying, full of texture and flavour, and makes a brilliant lunch or side dish \u2014 especially when you need something you can prep ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Orzo Salad Recipe Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s what you\u2019ll need to make this orzo salad recipe:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Orzo, of course!<\/strong> This small, rice-shaped pasta \u2014 called <em>Kritharaki<\/em> in Greece \u2014 is perfect for salads.

Enjoying it at room temperature gives the flavours time to really come together and shine.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Use the best ingredients you can<\/strong>. With simple recipes like this orzo salad, quality matters. A good olive oil, real sheep\u2019s feta, and flavour-packed marinated artichokes, sun-dried tomatoes and olives make all the difference.<\/li>\n<li>As for the artichokes, I like to use fresh marinated artichoke hearts from my <strong>local delicatessen<\/strong> \u2014 they add so much flavour. You can also find great options at organic or natural food shops, often packaged in herbs and olive oil. Alnatura is one of my go-to spots for consistently good quality.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Feta tip:<\/strong> I prefer using sheep\u2019s milk feta in this salad as it\u2019s creamier than the typical Greek sheep-and-goat\u2019s milk blend, which can also be a bit tangier. That said, feel free to use traditional Greek feta or another sheep\u2019s milk cheese with a similar texture if that\u2019s what you have on hand.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<span class=\"p1\" style=\"display: block;\"><span class=\"s1\">For a relaxing atmosphere in the kitchen I recommend my personal Elle Republic: <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/playlist\/7mYaXVomXeq6dkHJy1bYi1?si=5476100a6c394812\"><span class=\"s2\">Chilled Out Kitchen Tunes Playlist<\/span><\/a>\u00a0on Spotify.<\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div>\n      <div class=\"wprm-spacer\" style=\"height: 16px;\"><\/div> <div class=\"wprm-call-to-action wprm-call-to-action-simple\" style=\"color: #ffffff;background-color: var(--emery-accent-color);margin: 0px;padding-top: 30px;padding-bottom: 30px;border-radius: 12px;\"><span class=\"wprm-call-to-action-text-container\"><h3 class=\"wprm-call-to-action-header\" style=\"color: #ffffff;\">Tried this recipe?<\/h3><span class=\"wprm-call-to-action-text\"><a href=\"#comment\" target=\"_self\" style=\"color: #ffffff\" >Let us know<\/a> how it was!<\/span><\/span><span class=\"wprm-recipe-icon wprm-call-to-action-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\"><g class=\"nc-icon-wrapper\" stroke-width=\"1\" fill=\"#ffffff\" stroke=\"#ffffff\"><path fill=\"none\" stroke=\"#ffffff\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M11.5,0.5 C9.982,0.5,8.678,1.355,8,2.601C7.322,1.355,6.018,0.5,4.5,0.5c-2.209,0-4,1.791-4,4c0,4,7.5,11,7.5,11s7.5-7,7.5-11 C15.5,2.291,13.709,0.5,11.5,0.5z\" data-cap=\"butt\"\/> <\/g><\/svg><\/span> <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"44\" height=\"44\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-204\" src=\"https:\/\/ellerepublic.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Instagram-2.png\" alt=\"\"><\/figure>Did you try this Orzo Pasta Salad recipe?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Then tag <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/ellerepublic\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@ellerepublic<\/a> on Instagram and hashtag it <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/explore\/tags\/ellerepublic\/?hl=de\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#ellerepublic<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How did you like it?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Please let me know how this Orzo Pasta Salad recipe turned out for you!
