Elegant Orzo With Wilted Spinach, Feta and Pine Nuts, This dish is so Yummy, especially if you love orzo like we do! COOKS NOTE: I like to use more garlic, and spinach, but I will leave that up to you I also add roasted red peppers and even Pancetta!Please note: this is an adopted recipe and I hope to make it soonest If you make it before I do, I would appreciate feedback, Thanks ! ZWT REGION: Italy , Nice flavor combination used Gluten Free Annelinni (a tiny round noodle) It was good even without the vinegar (I forgot it and added later) This recipe makes a lot!, Super recipe! I didn’t post my photo because it is night time and I had to use my flash it was just too bright on orzo But this is one of the best recipes I have made in quite a long time! I will definitely make this again I questioned the lack of salt, but with the feta and balsamic vinegar, it is perfection Thanks so much for posting this fabulous recipe I made this for Everyday is a Holiday tag!
