This recipe originated with Guy Fieri. Has nearly everything in it, but the kitchen sink, a meal in itself. I substitute rice for the orzon, as it is gluten-free. The two hours is not cooking time, but marinating time.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
1/4 cup vinegar
1/2 cup olive oil
1/4 cup olive juice, from can
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon red chili pepper flakes
1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1 carrot, peeled and diced
1/2 cup diced black olives
1/2 cup green olives
1/2 cup marinated artichoke hearts, diced (or more)
1/2 cup roasted red pepper, diced
1/2 cup dice celery
1/2 cup red onion, minced
3 cups cooked orzo pasta (i use rice)
1 cup feta cheese
8 -10 bibb lettuce cups (optional)
1/2 cup roma tomato, diced
Directions:
1. Put the first 8 ingredients into a food processor. Pulse until well chopped, but not pureed.
2. Transfer to a bowl. Add remaining vegetables and olives, cover with plastic wrap. Place in refrigerator and allow the flavors to marry for 2 to 4 hours.
3. Add the cooked orzo (or substitute cooked rice) to the marinated vegetables, toss, then add feta cheese and toss again.
4. Serve in Bibb lettuce cups and top with tomatoes.
