Orzo Salad

This is one of my all time favorite meals!! I probably make it once a week not gonna lie. It is so simple to make for yourself, or take to a party. Also burrata is my favorite cheese, so that is what attracted me to this recipe.

After making this a few times, I have added cucumber, avocado etc. to the bowl just because I am obsessed with veggies!
