Okay, so this photo is junk but that is because this pasta was devoured by everyone before I got a good shot. Something different if you are tired of potatoes or rice. I won't pretend that it's health food because it's not, but the flavor is great.
If you are wondering, "what the heck is orzo?" it's a small pasta that looks like grains of rice. You'll find it with the other pasta in your grocery:
GARLIC PARMESAN ORZO
from Allrecipes.com
2 cups uncooked orzo pasta
3 garlic cloves, minced or pressed
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cubed
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup milk
2 Tbsp. minced fresh parsley, or 2 tsp. dried
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
Cook orzo according to package directions; drain. In a large skillet, saute garlic in butter over medium heat until tender and fragrant. Add the orzo, Parmesan cheese, milk, parsley, salt, and pepper. Cook and stir until heated through.
Love being introduced to new foods I've never heard of!!! Thanks Chanelle, you rock! So trying this one!!
