THIS IS SO GOOD!!! Maybe it was just the right salad at the right time, but for me...this hit the spot. So good, in fact, that I'm making a second batch.
Maybe it is the difference in the dressing.....I'm so use to a vinaigrette-type dressing on a pasta salad (which I do love), but the mustard in this mayo/sour cream really adds a bit of sharpness. Delicious! This recipe calls for grape tomatoes, but as I tasted the salad before I got to that point of ingredients, I just stopped. So glad I have more leftover ham!
ORZO HAM SALAD (6 servings)
2/3 cup orzo pasta, uncooked
1/4 cup mayo
1/4 cup sour cream
1 Tbsp cider vinegar
1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
1 Tbsp yellow mustard
2 Tbsp chopped fresh chives
1/2 tsp white sugar
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/2 cups fully cooked ham, chopped
3/4 cup finely chopped red onion
1/2 cup green bell pepper, chopped
1/2 cup grape tomatoes, halved
Bring a pan of water to a boil. Add orzo. Cooked until al dente, start checking at about 7-8 minutes (may take 10-11 minutes to cook). Drain.
Whisk mayo, sour cream, vinegar, mustards, chives, sugar, and S&P.
Combine cooked orzo, ham, onion, pepper, and tomatoes. Add dressing and mix until combined. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
