Cheesy Broccoli Orzo

By á-6954

Quick and easy orzo with broccoli is made in one pot! Cook the orzo, add the broccoli, drain and add cheese, butter and milk - what could be easier?

Ingredients

• 1 cup orzo
• 1 1/2 cups chopped broccoli florets
• 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1/4 to 1/2 cup 2% milk
• Salt, to taste

Preparation

Step 1

Add orzo to a large pot of salted boiling water. Cook for 3 minutes then add chopped broccoli and cook for 2 more minutes, or until orzo is tender. Drain well (broccoli florets are notorious for holding onto water) then return to the pot. Add cheeses, butter, and 1/4 cup milk then stir well and add more milk if needed.

Season with salt to taste.
