   Slice off the tops of each tomato and hollow out the tomatoes using a sharp spoon or melon baller. (Reserve the tomato tops for garnish if desired). Chop 1/2 cup of the scooped out tomato and add it to the orzo.

   Whisk to combine oil, pepper, salt, fresh basil and fresh oregano. Stir this and the feta cheese into the chopped tomato and orzo mixture.
