A quick and easy (of course) pasta salad to go with any picnic. You will need 1 pound of good Italian quality Orzo Pasta, 1 package of Weber® Just Add Juice® Citrus Herb Marinade, ½ cup orange juice, ¼ cup Mazola® Corn Oil, ½ cup red onion, finely chopped, 1 English cucumber, see below on how to prepare it, 1 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered, 6 ounces feta cheese, 2 tablespoon black olive, sliced and 2 tablespoons freshly chopped cilantro.

Boil pasta according to directions, drain and set aside until cooled (I place the cooked pasta on a large baking sheet for quick cooling).

In a medium sized mixing bowl add marinade, orange juice and corn oil. Whisk until well combined. When preparing the cucumber, peel skin, but not totally, see below. Use a fork to make ridges into sides of cucumber.

Add remaining ingredients to bowl, use a fork to remove herb from cilantro stems. Add cooked pasta and toss until well blended. Serve immediate or refrigerate for later use.
