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.
