Cancer and Careers would like to wish you and yours a very happy Thanksgiving!  Thanksgiving is about two things: giving thanks and eating. So I thought I would share one of the recipes from our Nutrition On The Go Guide that is specially formulated for cancer patients and survivors.  It makes a great side dish!

Orzo Salad

16 oz. package of orzo pasta

10 oz. baby spinach, washed and chopped

1/2 lb. crumbled feta cheese

1/2 red onion, chopped

3/4 cup pine nuts

Chopped fresh basil to taste

Ground pepper to taste

1/2 cup olive oil

1/2 cup balsamic vinegar

Cook orzo 8 to 10 minutes, rinse with cold water.  Mix all ingredients in a big bowl; serve. Makes 4 to 6 servings.

May alleviate constipation, dry mouth or difficulty swallowing.
