Orzo, a rice-shaped pasta, makes a delightful base for an authentically Greek combination of shrimp, tomatoes and feta. To serve as a side dish, omit the shrimp and drain the tomatoes before adding them.

Very good

This recipe says it serves four, but it could easily serve six. Delicious--even very picky boyfriend loved it. Simple flavors, very good.

Delicious!

This was so easy to make and it was so very good! I had most of the ingredients on hand and only needed to buy the feta and that shrimp. The portions were huge. I made it with whole wheat orzo which gave the dish a nice nutty flavor. I barely cooked the shrimp on the stove and they were perfectly done when they came out of the oven. I have already passed this on to my dad and told him that he has to make it!

I made this for a coworker when she wasn't up to cooking for herself. Her and her family really enjoyed it. Now, whenever we have a potluck at work I bring this in and see lots of smiles!

This is great! My husband and I love it. I served it to about 10 people at my bookclub and they all loved it. I think that adding black olives might be a nice touch, I think I'll try it next time.
