Instructions
- 1. To make the dressing, combine all ingredients in a large salad bowl. Add the olives, roasted peppers, and pepperoncini.
- 2. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Boil the pasta to al dente. Drain. Add the hot orzo to the salad bowl full of dressing. Toss, toss!
- 3. Toss the tomatoes with lemon, basil, thyme, and sea salt.
- 4. Crumble the feta over the orzo, add the avocado, and spoon the tomatoes over the feta. The orzo will develop more flavor as it sits, but I love to serve this warm!
