Orzo Salad with Kale and Tomatoes

Orzo is one of my favorite pastas. I remember the first time I made it (for my parents-recipe here), I was really nervous because I had never heard of it before. It's easy to make and tastes delicious as a salad. Adding kale and tomatoes to this dish was another wonderful gift from Growing Power! I LOVED it. It was hearty and delicious.
