  • 2 Persian Cucumbers (diced)
  • 1 cup Chickpeas (drained)
  • 1/2 cup Kalamata Olives (diced)
  • 1/4 cup Capers (drained)

  • Salt (to taste)

Instructions
 

For the Greek Orzo Bowls:

  • We'll start by boiling the orzo according to the package instructions- it should be about 10-12 minutes. Be sure to stir it once in a while so it doesn't stick.
  • While the orzo is boiling we'll dice up our veggies - Roma tomatoes, cucumbers, and olives.
  • Once the orzo is done, drain it and add it to a bowl. Top with the vegetables. Then add chickpeas, capers, and feta. Top with a little salt, lemon juice, and dill.
  • Mix the whole thing together and enjoy!
