    Creamy Parmesan Orzo,From Cooking Light, this is a wonderful side or light main dish. It is good even without the pine nuts if you don’t have them on hand, also any herb will work for the basil, you just may need a little more or less depending on the herb.,My family immediately fell in love with this easy-to-make dish.,So easy my 3y/o DD helped me make it for lunch. The only difference was that we added garlic and it was a nice change to the mac&cheese she wanted 🙂
