Summer ORZO salad
Are.you.ready! Love to kick off Spring with this salad I learned and adapted from my very favorite Italian women Marylin Staffieri. If you know her, you know how to proper garden, swap out refined sugar and you know how to substitute things for even more delicious flavor. The original recipe is golden raisins+Pepitas+currants.. so if you have them, go for it :) this recipe is so darn it good- you won’t find yourself venturing off too far to find them currants. If you do, get me a bag cause I have yet to! OH and the only thing to not sub out: the raspberry vinaigrette✨

RECIPE:
1box cooked+cooled ORZO
Equal amounts of these:
(Roughly around 1-2cups)
Feta
Chopped craisins
Toasted pine nuts
Yummy seasoned grilled chicken
(Never boiled. No chicken ever lived her life to be boiled.bleh.or canned)
2cups finely finnnnely chopped spinach (I pack them in a pretty little stack and thinly slice across both ways like I’m making a plaid print 😂) the idea here is to keep everyone guessing to what it is :)

Favorite Raspberry Dressing!
Place all in a mini food processor or blender:
1T Italian seasoning
A few pinches each of salt+pepper
2 garlic cloves
Drizzle of real maple syrup
2/3 C. Olive oil or Avo oil
1/3 C. Raspberry vinegar
(If you don’t have this shame shame on your family name but you can swap out for red wine vinegar+10 raspberries and a couple strawberries) I’ve had to do this in some out of town away from my treasured pantry occasions
Make this for your next BBQ, picnic, baby shower or pretend get together. So fresh and colorful and happy and pretty🙆🏼♀️👌🏼 feel free to add more of any of your favorites of these things. If you are a feta girl.. totally add more.. craisins? Go for it. This is one of our v v favorite summer salads. Love you Marylin!
How to make the vinegar? 1 large weck jar, Mason or old pickle jar
fill to the brim with 1 carton of fresh a raspberries and rice wine vinegar. Place in garage and set a timer on your calendar for 4ish to 6 months. Just keep adding more jars to your collection as berries go on sale. We have added blood orange, tangerine and also a strawberry peach jalapeño that is so good!
