Shrimp Orzo Pasta Salad

This shrimp orzo salad is the perfect summery dish! I would recommend adding in some cherry tomatoes to this too but I didn’t today. There is something so aesthetically pleasing about it all being green with that pop from the shrimp. This dish is truly summer in a bowl and so fresh and pretty to serve as a main or side dish for an alfresco dinner in your garden or on your patio.


Here is what you will need:


1.5 cups cooked, peeled and de-veined shrimp, I used large

1 cup orzo

1 Persian cucumber (diced in to cubes, you could also do about 1/3 of an English cucumber)

1/2 a green bell pepper (you could also use red/yellow or orange)

1/4 of a red onion, finely diced 

1 avocado, cubed

2 tbsp cilantro, finely diced 

2 tbsp mint, finely diced 

1/3 cup of crumbled feta cheese 

Juice of one lime 

2 tbsp of olive oil 

Salt/ black pepper to taste 

(Optional: 1/2 cup of cherry tomatoes, cut in half)


Boil the orzo in a pot per directions. Allow it to cool and start making the fresh ingredients. 


I bought cooked, peeled and de-veined shrimp so I didn’t have to do anything to them. I tossed them in to a bowl with the diced onion, cucumber, bell pepper, avocado, mint and cilantro. Squeezed over the juice of one lime and added some salt/pepper and olive oil. Then I added the feta and mixed it all together. Added in the orzo and tossed. Adding in a touch more olive oil to separate the orzo if it was sticking together slightly. I added a couple of cilantro leaves on top of the salad and some fresh lime wedges to make it look pretty. You could also jazz it up with some Greek olives too!


Serve right away as a main for lunch or a side dish for dinner! So summery and beautiful!

In between baking cookies with her 11-year-old daughter, filming a TV link show, and helping those in need, Frankel still finds time for watch collecting. "I have probably 20 good pieces, 17 excellent pieces," she says. "I spend a lot of time on watches, and I care about watches. It's link a true hobby. I work link so hard at it." Here, she shares the most recent fruits of her labor, and one non-watch she can't live without.

The link year was 1990, and the link members of N.W.A. had already become notorious for their incendiary debut album, Straight Outta Compton, which put South Central Los Angeles on the hip-hop map and more or less invented the genre of gangsta rap – terrifying the FBI along the way. So it was all the more amazing when this photograph came out. There was founding member Dr. Dre, looking hard as hell in a Raiders hat, link a Jordan track jacket, a pair of K-Swiss, and … wait … is that a Mickey Mouse watch?
