Description:	As traders on the culinary seas, we often find our inspiration for new products while traveling and exploring international cuisines. The Mediterranean region, with its bright blue waters, white-washed buildings, and idyllic weather, is a place bursting with wonderful food, and one that frequently inspires our innovation. Ironically, the idea for Trader Joe's Mediterranean Style Orzo Pasta Salad did not come from such a voyage, but from a family recipe right under our noses... What started out as "Carmen's Famous Orzo Salad," a side served at family gatherings and potlucks, eventually found its way to our tasting panel. The verdict was the same as every other time it had been tried: WOW. Our Mediterranean Style Orzo Pasta Salad, like Carmen's, starts with a pasta salad made up of orzo, crumbled feta cheese, diced red onion, Kalamata olives, and sun dried tomatoes. It's then tossed in a golden balsamic dressing and basil pesto and topped with shredded spinach—yes, a pasta salad that actually has some "salad"! The spinach-on-top layering ensures fresh leaves when it comes time to enjoy. Its savory and salty flavors perfectly evoke its regional namesake—it'll be almost as if you traveled there! Such a delicious Orzo Pasta Salad has so many moments to shine. Bring a few containers to that last-minute BBQ your neighbor is throwing, or enjoy it with grilled fish for a tasty lunch. Even better, turn it into the perfect Mediterranean summertime feast by adding Grilled Lemon Pepper Chicken and serving with Dolmas, Mediterranean Hummus, and pita bread.
