WHAT'S IN IT:

• 1 package orzo
• 1 red onion, chopped
• 1 package feta cheese
• 1 1/2 cups cherry tomatoes
• 1 tbsp dill, rough chopped
• walnuts, rough chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, crushed

Vinaigrette 

• 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
• 1/4 cup EVOO
• 1 tbsp dijon mustard
• juice of 2 fresh lemons
• sea salt and pepper to taste

MAKE IT:

1. Cook orzo according to package.
2. Preheat oven to 350.
3. Slice tomatoes lengthwise and place in a bowl. Add EVOO, crushed garlic, salt and pepper. Use your hands to mix and make sure all tomatoes are coated with EVOO mixture. Spread tomatoes out on a baking sheet and cook in the oven for 8 minutes.
4. Rough chop walnuts and toast in a dry skillet over medium-low heat for 5 minutes until they are warm. Keep an eye on these as they will burn easily.
5. Mix together red wine vinegar, EVOO, lemon juice, dijon mustard, salt and pepper in a small dish.
6. In a large bowl, combine cooked orzo with onion, walnuts, dill, feta and roasted tomatoes. Pour vinaigrette over everything and enjoy.
