    I think the citrus vinaigrette calls for too much oil. The citrus taste was fine, but I couldn't get past how much oil was in there. And I even made more orzo than the recipe called for!

    I love the texture and taste of this pasta salad. Fresh cilantro and yummy tomatos are key ingredients.

    Its better the 2nd day, served at room temp, this allows flavors to blend together. Add peeled cucumber (absorbs flavor well for more crunch and/or yellow or orange sweet pepper for more color, crunch (and taste, as desired. The recipes has many options, including adding grilled veggies of any kind, mmm grilled corn would be great with this salad!

    Easy and a tasty alternative to mayo based pasta salads.

    I love this recipe! I made it for a summer get together and everyone was asking for the recipe. I did change it a bit, I added cubed fresh mozzarella and used halved cherry tomatoes. I also cook the orzo to very al dente and pour the dressing over the pasta when it is still hot. The orzo absorbs the citrus vinaigrette and its delicious! Definitely a quick and easy side dish for picnics and summer grill outs!

    This was a complete failure and I had to throw it out. I thought that next time I might half the dressing, but honestly, it just didn't have a good taste.

    It just didn't do anything for me...the flavors never really came together.

    for my palate with the combination of lemon and lime in this recipe. The taste was a bit bland and the cilantro got lost in this recipe.
