Spicy Orzo Salad

Sooooo....you know you're slacking on the blog when people actually start requesting blogs. I just haven't been too into lately. But you know what I have been into? Healthy eating. Five days a week we go vegetarian. It's healthy, yummy, and seriously...it's been really easy on the pocketbook! Here's one of my favorites.

Spicy Orzo Salad

1 cup orzo, uncooked

1 cup frozen corn, thawed and drained

Container of cherry tomatoes, halved

1 can black beans, rinsed and drained

1/4 cup almond milk

Juice of one lemon

Cilantro, chopped

Juice of one lime

2Tbsp sour cream

2Tbsp mayonaise

1tsp chili powder

Salt and pepper

1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
