Converting Recipe From Orzo Pasta To Rice

My very favorite crowd pleasing recipe before going gluten-free was this Spinach and Orzo Salad. I need a salad to feed a large group. What do you think about substituting rice for the Orzo pasta? I wonder if it will absorb too much dressing and I don't have time to try it out.

1 16 oz. pkg uncooked orzo (sub. rice?)

3/4 c. pine nuts

1 10 pkg. baby spinach leaves, chopped

1/2 tsp. dried or fresh basil

1/2 lb. crumbled feta cheese

1/4 tsp. ground white pepper

1/2 red onion

1/2 c. olive oil

1/2 c. balsamic vinegar

Toss, refrigerate and serve cold.

If anyone has a recipe for my salad supper for my volunteer group that would feed a lot, please post it.

Let me know what you think-

Thanks-

I'll bet that would be good with quinoa or a basmati wild rice blend. The key is to not overcook the grains-aldente just like the pasta.

      Thank you! This is very helpful I’ll start looking over everything and writing down what I may be recent to. I suspect minor gluten or another intolerance. Do you have any advice on how to possibly expedite my healing process? I’ve heard taking different herbs and vitamin supplements but it’s a bit overwhelming for how recent I’ve been trying to keep track of my diet. Doing my best to feel better since I’m heaving so many annoying symptoms 😕

      Based on the amount of gluten in typical US diet, our bodies have a really high tolerance for gluten. While it  makes us sick, from inflammation, poor digestion/limited absorption of basic nutrients, & specific vitamin  & mineral deficiencies, it doesn’t kill quickly.  By this time celiac is dx-ed, our immune system are usually over worked & under fed.    Once dx -ed & on GFD, gut starts to heal & immune system function improves both in its ability to find gluten & to response to it. Basically, immune system is on high alert & fully armed so traces of gluten  can set off reactions that are as bad or worse than  those pre-dx.       You’ve reached that point so it’s time to go through products you’re...

      Finding a doctor who truly understands celiac disease can be challenging—many still rely on outdated info or dismiss lingering symptoms. Here's what's worked for me and others in the celiac community: 1. Start with a Gastroenterologist (GI) Specializing in Celiac Look for GIs affiliated with celiac research centers (e.g., Columbia University, Mayo Clinic, University of Chicago Celiac Disease Center). Ask if they follow updated guidelines (e.g., repeat endoscopy/biopsy when needed, monitor for refractory celiac, nutrient deficiencies). 2. Leverage Celiac Organizations Celiac Disease Foundation Beyond Celiac Coeliac UK (UK): Healthcare Professional Network 3. Ask...
