    The dressing sounds very summery; am thinking of using orzo and adding chicken or shrimp for a light dinner this hot hot summer. - 6/3/08

    I actually tried your suggestion and added grilled chicken to this salad and YUM what a great treat. I also tried the shrimp addition for a special anniversary dinner for my husband! It was a hit! Thanks
