Description

The first version of this salad was an experiment in mixing together some random ingredients I had on hand. It was a success, and several people at the party asked for the recipe—which meant I had to re-create it! It's healthy, delicious and perfect for warm-weather days. —Glen White, Kissimmee, Florida

Ingredient:

  • 1 can (14-1/2 ounces) reduced-sodium chicken broth
  • 1-1/2 cups uncooked whole wheat orzo pasta
  • 4 cups fresh baby spinach
  • 2 cups grape tomatoes, halved
  • 2 cans (15 ounces each) chickpeas or garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
  • 3/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
