This Mediterranean Pasta Salad<\/strong> recipe is light and fresh, it\u2019s loaded with summer\u2019s favourite produce, olives, capers, and creamy feta cheese. Tossed in a Greek-style dressing, it combines all the flavours of the Mediterranean in a single bowl. It\u2019s the perfect make-ahead pasta salad for summer BBQs, picnics or an easy dinner!<\/p>\n

This Mediterranean pasta salad is reminiscent of a traditional Greek salad, with the exception that rather than cucumber, it\u2019s made with lighted saut\u00e9ed zucchini. Zucchini is the perfect pair with sweet summer tomatoes, red pepper, olives, capers, fresh herbs and feta. It\u2019s a fantastically flavourful salad that easily can be made ahead and tastes just as fabulous the next day. Plus it\u2019s relatively guilt-free since it\u2019s mayo-free and chock full of fresh, good-for-you ingredients.<\/p>\n

What is Orzo?<\/h2>\n

Orzo (also called risoni or kritharaki<\/a>) is a type of pasta with a shape resembling a large grain of rice. It\u2019s typically made the same way as most pasta \u2014 with durum wheat semolina. But, nowadays you can find it made from whole wheat, and other types of grains, as well as gluten-free versions made from legume, such as chickpeas, lentils and peas.<\/p>\n
