Mediterranean Orzo is a vibrant and nutritious dish inspired by the flavors of Mediterranean cuisine. It features orzo, a rice-shaped pasta, combined with fresh ingredients such as tomatoes, cucumbers, olives, red onion, and feta cheese. Often dressed with olive oil, lemon juice, and herbs like parsley or oregano, this dish is both delicious and wholesome. Mediterranean Orzo is rich in fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants from its fresh vegetables. Healthy fats from olives and olive oil further enhance its nutritional value, promoting heart health. While flavorful, it’s worth noting that the feta cheese and olives contribute sodium, so moderation is key for those watching salt intake. Perfect as a side dish or light main course, Mediterranean Orzo delivers a balance of taste and nutrition that celebrates the fresh and wholesome ingredients characteristic of Mediterranean cooking.
