Serve this Greek-inspired dish with a chilled Rose.

Ingredients:
    ½ box orzo
    1 bunch spinach, trimmed and washed
    2 tablespoons Brennans Extra Virgin Olive Oil
    1 lemon, juiced & zested
    1 fat clove garlic, minced
    2 tablespoons red onion, minced
    1/3 cup feta cheese, crumbled
    good grind of black pepper
    1 handful of freshly roasted almonds


Preparation:

Cook orzo in salted water until just its just about done. Add the spinach to the pot and stir it around so that it wilts. Cook for a minute or so and drain into a large bowl.

Toss with lemon juice, zest, olive oil, garlic, onion and feta cheese. Sprinkle with freshly roasted almonds. Give everything a good grind of black pepper. You probably wont need salt because of the feta, but adjust seasonings to your taste.
