Steps:
- Cook the orzo for 1 minute less than package instructions indicate. Rinse with cool water, drain well, and set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic, salt, black pepper, and cayenne. Add the cooked orzo and stir to coat.
- Add the tomatoes, squash, cucumber, green onions, basil, and parsley to the orzo mixture and toss to combine. Taste for seasoning and add salt and freshly ground pepper as needed.
- Top with the toasted almonds and serve chilled or at room temperature.
- To save time, the orzo mixture can be made 1 day in advance and combined with the vegetables just before serving.
POLKA DOT PANCAKES
This is a breakfast I make a few times a week for my husband and our 5 kids. When you have as many to feed in the morning as I do (and some are very picky), it's nice to find a recipe that makes a lot, is good for you and tastes great! These fluffy pancakes are very versatile. The "polka dot" part is simple to make by adding chocolate chips, blackberries, blueberries, raspberries, or anything else that looks like "polka dots". We even have these for dinner sometimes with bacon and eggs. Using the whole wheat flour adds an excellent flavor and extra nutrition too. Enjoy!
