Here's a delicious Greek meal for one that can easily be multiplied for more servings. Shrimp, artichoke hearts, grape tomatoes, orzo and feta cheese add a fresh Mediterranean flavour to this easy-to-make pasta salad. If you don't have grape tomatoes on-hand, tomato wedges can make a fine substitute. We prefer to buy feta cheese in a block and crumbling it yourself. Serve this alongside a Greek salad for a delicious weeknight dinner.
