Zucchini Orzo with Carrots

Well this meal was a major hit with my son. More so the carrots than the zucchini orzo, but he did eat it. He had 4, yes FOUR, adult sized portions of carrots. I forget how much he likes them until I just steam them plain. He loves them. I am going to try to remember that and make them more often. They aren't one of my favorites so I think I just don't mentally think about making them, but I will now.


Anyway, the orzo is so easy and very good. I actually put some chicken into ours this time (we usually don't and have this as a vegetarian meal) because we had a leftover chicken breast in the fridge from the orange chicken. I thought it might taste a little funky but it was actually very good. It added a little sweetness to the dish.

The orzo makes a lot so plan on it as a main dish not a side dish if you make it, even without the chicken it is good as a main dish.

Here is the link to the Zucchini Orzo recipe.
