Ingredients
0.67 cups uncooked orzo pasta
0.25 cups mayonnaise
0.25 cups sour cream
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon yellow mustard
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
0.5 teaspoons white sugar
0.5 teaspoons black pepper
0.25 teaspoons salt
1.5 cups chopped fully cooked ham
1 cup diced red onion
0.5 cups chopped green bell pepper
0.5 cups halved cherry or grape tomatoes
Instructions
1
Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the orzo, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water in a colander set in the sink.
2
Whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, cider vinegar, Dijon and yellow mustard, chives, sugar, black pepper, and salt in a bowl.
3
Place the cooked and cooled pasta, ham, red onion, green pepper, and tomatoes in a large bowl. Toss together with the dressing. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes before serving.
