Tips

  • You can make it your own by tossing in whatever vegetables you like.
  • You can make as much or as little as you want, just remember the ratio is always going to be 2:1 (2 parts of stock and 1 part of orzo).
  • For the broccoli, make sure you get your florets nice and small.
  • If you add parmesan cheese while the orzo is still on the heat, it will get chunky and weird, so add it after.
