ROASTED VEGETABLE ORZO SALAD

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

In a large bowl, toss the mixed vegetables with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until evenly coated.

Spread the vegetables on a baking sheet in a single layer and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized.

While the vegetables are roasting, cook the orzo pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked orzo, roasted vegetables, feta cheese (if using), parsley, and lemon juice.

Toss everything together until well mixed. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.

Serve warm or at room temperature.
