Quick Pasta Salad: Orzo with Cherry Tomatoes, Feta & Scallions

This pasta salad is so quick and easy! You can use another type of pasta if you want to, but orzo happened to be what I had in my pantry. This pasta salad is crisp and refreshing with bold Mediterranean flavors. It makes a great lunch on its own or pair it with dinner for a tasty side dish. You can also add black olives or pine nuts to this recipe for even more flavor.
