1/4 c. (2 ounces) uncooked whole-grain orzo (rice-shaped pasta)
1 c. fresh cilantro1 lime, juiced
1 tsp. olive oil
1 TBSP. pine nuts
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 c. canned black beans, rinsed, drained (or 2-oz. cooked salmon or tuna)
1/4 c. chopped roasted red peppers (in a jar packed with water)
1/4 c. corn kernels (I had frozen and just thawed them with no heat)
Cook orzo according to package directions. In a food processor, puree cilantro, lime juice, oil, pine nuts and garlic to make pesto. Toss cooked orzo with pesto and remaining ingredients and serve.
I first ate this warm and loved it, but it was yummy the next day as a cold lunch salad.
