Quintessential Greek flavors—feta, lemon and dill—combine perfectly in this hearty salad. To complete the Mediterranean mood, try pairing it with a Greek Retsina or a Portuguese Vinho Verde.

Make Ahead Tip: Prepare the salad—without the tomatoes and spinach—cover and refrigerate for up to 1 day. Add the tomatoes just before serving and serve over the spinach.

RECIPE INGREDIENTS

1/2 cup orzo or other tiny pasta

1 1/2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil

1 clove garlic, crushed and peeled

1/8 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice

1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

1 14-ounce can artichoke hearts, drained and chopped

1 7-ounce can chickpeas, rinsed

1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese

2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill

1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint

1 large tomato, chopped

2 cups baby spinach leaves

DIRECTIONS

Bring a small saucepan of water to a boil. Cook orzo until just tender, about 9 minutes, or according to package directions. Drain and rinse under cold water until cool. Press to remove excess water. Transfer to a medium bowl and toss with oil.

Mash garlic and salt into a paste with the back of a spoon in a medium bowl. Whisk in lemon juice and pepper. Add the cooked orzo, artichokes, chickpeas, feta, dill and mint; toss gently to combine. Add tomatoes and toss again.

Divide spinach between 2 plates and top with the salad.
