  • 1 cup orzo
  • 2 cups of vegetable or chicken stock
  • 3 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 4 scallions chopped
  • 1 cup baby spinach
  • ½ cup peas
  • ¾ cup feta cheese
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions

  • Assemble your ingredients before you begin.
  • In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil
  • Add the garlic and scallions and sauté till they turn color, about 2-3 minutes
  • Add the spinach and sauté till it wilts. You can add some salt that speeds up the process.
  • Now add the peas and the stock and give it a stir. Bring it to a simmer.
  • Add the orzo and salt. Cover and let cook. The stock should reduce, and the orzo should get cooked in about 8 to 10 minutes.

  • Add the Feta cheese and combine it well together.
  • Scoop into serving bowl. Garnish with freshly, cracked black pepper and dill or parsley.
