Lemony Dill Orzo Salad

This is not just a summer salad.

This is a perfect “al desko” lunch for all times of year. The vegetables can be interchangeable for what is in season, and what you like.  Plus, you can make a big bowl and eat it throughout the week, which is always a good idea.

The dill and lemon combo is always perfect and there are more veggies than pasta. Are you sold yet?

Enjoy!
