Creamy Vegetable Orzo
This is another first for me...I've never made Orzo, or even had it before, but I've always been curious. I must say I really liked it and will be making it again soon!
What You'll Need:
1 cup of Tri-Color Orzo Pasta
Extra virgin olive oil
1/2 a small onion, chopped
2 large button mushrooms, chopped
2 large baby portabella mushrooms, chopped
1 leek, chopped
1 small carrot, shredded
Sea salt
Black pepper
1 cup of frozen peas
1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese
Fresh parsley, chopped
Cook Orzo according to package directions, drain and set aside.
Sauté veggies (minus peas) in a little extra virgin olive oil until tender with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper. Add peas and Orzo and cook for about 2-3 minutes until peas are heated through. Remove from heat and stir in Parmesan cheese and freshly chopped parsley. Serve warm.
Quick, simple and delicious. Who can ask for more?
