1/2 to 1 lb box of orzo
1/2 of 15 oz can whole black olives
1/2 pint of fresh cherry tomatoes, cut in half
2 TBS capers
16 oz Zesty Italian dressing
Black pepper
Salt is optional (none of us use much salt, and the dressing is enough for us.

It's easy to make. Cook the orzo, drain, rinse (or not) and cool. Put it in a 4 qt. bowl, add the other ingredients, stir and chill if desired. If you use less orzo, you won't use all of the dressing. If you use a full 1 lb, you should plan to add part of the bottle when you make it, and add more when you serve.

You can add as much of the black olives and tomatoes as you want, more or less to taste. You can add other things, too, such as fresh garlic, fresh onion, fresh bell pepper.
