Orzo Salad with Corn, Black Beans, and Tomatoes


I should have called this garbage salad because I had some orzo salad for lunch and decided to create my own. So yummy!

Ingredients:
6 cups cooked orzo
1/2 large cucumber, diced into 1/2-inch pieces
2 cups grape tomatoes
13 oz. can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 large corn cob, shaved
1/2 cup poblano chili (sometimes called pasilla) chopped into small pieces
1/2 cup chopped sweet onion
1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes-  I like Bella Sun Luci brand
1/3 cup balsamic dressing
salt/pepper to taste

Directions:
Cook orzo according to package instructions.  Add remaining ingredients and mix. Season with salt and pepper to taste.   Start with 1/4 cup balsamic dressing and add to taste.
