3/4 cup orzo pasta, cooked and drained
Blend all ingredients in medium bowl. Toss to mix.
Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes to blend flavors. Sprinkle coarse salt on top before serving.
Poster's Notes:
I left out the salt, and added some garlic powder and cumin powder. Didn't have any dill, so those additions brightened up the flavor. Also substituted 1/2 yellow/mild onion for the green onion which we didn't have.
