Ingredients:
1 lb Uncooked Orzo or Ditalini OR other small pasta shape
2 tsp Vegetable oil
2 large Red bell peppers cored, seeded and cut into wide strips
1 large Red onion, sliced into 1/4-inch thick rings
3 medium Tomatoes, very ripe
1 bunch Scallions, finely chopped
1 Jalapeno pepper seeded and minced
1/2 cup Lime juice
1 tsp Salt
1/4 cup Low-fat sour cream OR guacamole
Instructions:
Prepare pasta according to package directions; drain.

Brush the red pepper strips and onion rings lightly with the
vegetable oil. Over medium-hot coals, grill the vegetables until they
are very soft, about 8 to 9 minutes.

Mince the tomatoes and put them in a large bowl. Stir in the
scallions, jalapenos, lime juice and salt.

When the peppers and onions are ready, transfer them from the grill
to a cutting board. Cut them into very thin strips and add to the
salsa with the pasta. Toss well. Divide the pasta among four bowls
and top each with a spoonful of sour cream.

*This dish is delicious with the addition of grilled chicken breasts,
cut into thin strips.
