People often think orzo is rice but in fact, it is a pasta shaped to look like rice. Those Italians can be tricky. These fun slivers of pasta are great for kids and it cooks in only a few minutes. If you cannot find orzo, substitute with another small pasta, couscous, or quinoa. This dish is great to bring to a picnic or an outdoor party because it doesn't contain any mayonnaise (I would probably omit the shrimp too, just to be safe). This salad is bright with invigorating flavors from ingredients that wake up your palette.
