CHOICE Potluck

I have decided that I am going to make this Minty Orzo Lentil and Feta Salad for the potluck on Saturday with a few changes: I am substituting the brown lentils with precooked beluga lentils from Trader Joe's and eliminating the olives entirely.

Make it Minty, Make it Fresh

I am averaging one new recipe each week, which is pretty good considering how little time I have these days. Next week we have a potluck to attend and I am determined to make something different from my usual orzo salad with feta, spinach, and mushrooms. There is a ton of mint in the garden that I haven't touched yet. It seems as though mint pairs well with orzo and feta so I am considering one of the following:

Orzo with feta, lemon, and mint from woolfit.com
Minted orzo and zucchini salad from wholefoodsmarket.com
Orzo with mint and peas from marthastewart.com

Other mint recipes that I am considering:

Roast rack of lamb with mint sauce from epicurious.com
Grilled lamb chops with tahini sauce from foodandwine.com
Watercress and mint salad with walnuts from foodandwine.com
Arugula and mint salad from foodandwine.com

And of course:

Pomelo mint mojito from foodandwine.com
Minted vodka lemonade from epicurious.com

I might make this one tomorrow:

Fresh mint and ginger lemonade from epicurious.com
