this is yummy, passed down from the family: Orzo, Sun Dried Tomato & Hazelnut Salad Dressing: 2 tsp minced garlic ¼ cup toasted hazelnuts ¼ cup tightly packed Italian parsley leaves (could try basil) 2 tabs white wine vinegar ¼ cup oil 1 tab brown sugar Place all ingreds into a processor & blend until it forms a paste. 8-10 sundried tomato pieces ¼ cup black olives, halved 1 cup orzo pasta 70gr feta, crumbled ¼ cup toasted hazelnuts whole Sea salt & freshly ground pepper Cook orzo then drain, rinse & set aside to cool. Place orzo pasta, tomatoes, olives, hazelnuts & feta into a bowl. Add dressing & fold through lightly to combine. Just before serving sprinkle over chopped hazelnuts, rock salt & freshly ground pepper.
And this is my all time favourite, nice warm
