Greek Pasta Salad

1-1/4 cups uncooked orzo (8 oz)

2 cups chopped cucumber

1/2 cup chopped red onion

1/2 cup Greek dressing- creamy or viniagrette (or Italian if you can't find it)

1 medium tomato, chopped (about 3/4 cup)

1 can (15-16 oz) garbanzo beans/chick peas, rinsed and drained

1 can (4 oz) sliced olives, drained

1/2 cup crumbled Feta cheese (2 oz)

Cook and drain pasta as directed on package. Rinse with cold water; drain.

Mix pasta and remaining ingredients (except cheese) in glass or plastic bowl. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour to blend flavors but no longer than 24 hours.

Top salad with cheese when ready to serve.
