Mediterranean Cassava Orzo Salad
The weather is heating up and it is salad season. Well, here in Hawai’i it is salad season year round. But, it is time for BBQs and picnics. And I love a salad that is not heavy and is full of flavor. This dish has lots of ingredients but it is worth the extra few minutes as the end result is full of flavor and freshness.
