This salad is GREAT! A great combination of vegetables with the orzo and a nice 'light'/flavorful dressing! I made this for a chinese dinner party at my house, and now EVERYONE is asking for the recipe!! Thanks Paula, you rock!! (PS - I love using your recipes, the ingredients are usually available in my small town in ND!!)

I have made this recipe 2 times over the past few weeks. I diced the chicken meat from a store bought rotisserie chicken and substituted edamame for the snap peas. This recipe is great cold as well. My guest all loved it and it is low fat.
