Cook the Orzo: Start by boiling the orzo pasta. Once cooked, drain it, rinse under cold water, and set it aside.

Combine the Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix together the spinach, feta cheese, onions, pine nuts, sun-dried tomatoes, and Kalamata olives. Add the cooled orzo to this mix and stir everything together.

Prepare the Dressing: In a separate bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, dried basil, and black pepper. Drizzle this dressing over the spinach and orzo mixture, and toss everything to combine.

Adjust the Seasoning: Taste the salad and, if needed, add salt to your liking.

Chill and Serve: For the best flavor, refrigerate the salad before serving it cold.
