Greek Orzo Salad with Mustard-Dill Vinaigrette Bobby Flay

I was watching Food Network on Sunday morning and on Bobby Flay’s Grilling show, he made this Greek Orzo Salad with Mustard-Dill Vinaigrette. I tend to not try any greek pasta salads that have black olives in it, but this one didn’t. Thank god!  I can’t stand black olives because they’re way too salty.  Tomatoes and cucumber are my favorite salad ingredients and Orzo is my favorite pasta. This dish would be perfect to bring to a picnic or 4th of July party.

This pasta salad would be good with some grilled chicken or shrimp in it to make it a complete meal. He did make some grilled shrimp which I plan on making tomorrow for dinner. I just loved all the ingredients in this salad and tomorrow I plan on taking some of it with me for lunch and adding some tuna to it. Will definitely make this salad again.
