Salad
1 cup orzo
6-7 celery stalks
1/4 fennel bulb
4-5 brussels sprouts
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
1/2 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
Dressing
2 tablespoons tahini
6-8 tablespoons olive oil
juice of 1 lemon
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon honey (or maple syrup, if you want to keep the dish strictly vegan)
1 teaspoon sumac
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
salt and pepper, to taste

1
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add orzo and cook until al-dente, approximately 7 to 9 minutes. Drain, toss with olive oil (don't forget this step, lest you be left with a hardened block of orzo!), and lay out on a large plate or sheet pan to cool.
2
While the orzo cools, finely chop the celery and green onions into a large bowl. Using a mandolin, or otherwise finely slicing with a very sharp blade (either way, watch those fingers!), add the fennel, radishes and brussels sprouts. Finally, mix in the herbs.
3
In another bowl, whisk the dressing ingredients together until combined.
4
Add cooled orzo and dressing to the veggies, and toss everything together. Enjoy at your dinner table, your desk, or on a sun-drenched picnic blanket.
