Ingredients:

Serving

3/4 cup orzo
1 (15 oz) can black-eyed peas, drained and rinsed
1 large tomato, diced (1 cup)
2 tbsp chopped flat-leaf parsley
2 tbsp red-wine vinegar
2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1/2 seedless cucumber , halved lengthwise, cored, and diced (1 cup)
1/2 cup pitted kalamata olive , slivered
1/3 cup thinly sliced red onion
1 tsp grated lemon zest
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tbsp finely chopped oregano
2 -3 cups romaine lettuce, coarsely chopped
1/2 lb feta, crumbled (1 cup)

Directions:

Cook orzo according to package instructions. Drain in a sieve and rinse under cold water until cool.
Toss black-eyed peas, tomato, and parsley with vinegar, 1 tablespoon oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Marinate, stirring occasionally, 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, toss together orzo, remaining tablespoon oil, cucumber, olives, onion, lemon zest and juice, oregano, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl.
I serve it with the romaine in the bowls first, topped with a layer of orzo mixture, layer of black-eyed-pea mixture, and finished topped with feta but you can also mix it all together if you prefer.
