Instructions

Cut broccoli into florets, and place in a single layer on a baking tray. Drizzle with lemon juice, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake at 200°C/400°F for 20-25 minutes, tossing halfway, or until cooked through and lightly charred.
Meanwhile prepare orzo according to package instructions. Drain and let cool a bit.
For the dressing whisk together dressing ingredients. Adjust consistency with a few tablespoons of water, if needed.
Add slightly cooled orzo, chickpeas, onion, apple, almonds, and roasted broccoli to a large bowl. Drizzle with dressing, and mix well. Serve immediately warm, or chilled at room temperature. Enjoy!
