Creamy Orzo, We watched Giada DeLaurentis prepare this dish and whole family agreed – this is a must fix. Creamy, wonderful blend of flavors., I just tried this and my family loved it!! Goes well with Rosemary chicken! This will be a favorite at my house. Thanks for sharing!, This is very good change from eating rice or potatoes. I added Hunts fire roasted tomatoes and some parsley and left out the peas not a big fan of peas. This was even better the next day.
