Servings - 4 servings

Ingredients 

  • 1 cup of orzo pasta
  • 1 ripe mango, seeded and diced
  • 1 ripe avocado, seeded and diced
  • 3 Tbsp Tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
  • 2 limes, juiced
  • 2 Tbsp store bought or homemade vinaigrette
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: Protein boost with diced grilled chicken

Instructions

  • Cook the orzo as directed. (I used about 1 cup of a 2 cup bag. If you wish to use the whole bag, just double everything else in the recipe!)
  • In a mixing bowl, toss together the diced mango, avocado, chopped cilantro with the lime juice and vinaigrette.
  • When the orzo is cooked through, rinse with cold water. Then add to the mixing bowl and toss together with the mango-avocado mixture. Serve or chill for at least an hour in the refrigerator. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Optional: Mix in chilled, cooked diced chicken.
  • Serve Mango-Avocado Orzo Salad as vegetarian meal, side dish or simple lunch.
