This is one of the best salads I have ever had! It is so delicious and healthy! Thank you, Elaine, for sending me the recipe to share with all of our bloggers!
1 lb. of small pasta (orzo or ditalini...whole wheat will work)
1 large can of orange & grapefruit sections (you can use fresh also!)
1/2 cup of fresh mint leaves chopped.
salt & pepper to taste
Orange oil salad dressing:
1/2 cup of extra-virgin olive oil
1 orange zested
1/4 cup of white wine vinegar
juice of orange
Cook pasta according to package directions.
Let pasta cool
Toss in orange & grapefruit sections
Add orange oil salad dressing along with salt & pepper
Just before serving, sprinkle with fresh mint leaves
"This makes a large amount of salad. Great for a large group. When I make this for myself, I prepare a smaller amount of pasta and I add the fruit & dressing as needed when I want something light & fresh to eat." - Elaine
Enjoy, everyone! If any of you try it, let me know what you think!
