    Hi Kitten, how are you? It's me, discharf here! This recipe is perfect comfort food for me! Who needs a steak - make a meal of it, why not? Followed your recipe, sort of - instead of salt & pepper used Italian Seasoning, I also added 3 green onions sliced very small & then threw in some crushed red pepper flakes! It was awesome! I was able to get some of the resident's who come down to "our" restaurant - Cafe Ponce - to taste it even if it had some mushrooms! ;) Thank you for posting - it was a great success, Manami a/k/a/Diane :)

    Mushroom and Parmesan Orzo, This side dish is easy to make and really tasty, , everyone loves it! Try to use a good-quality Parmesan or romano cheese for this, the common store-bought brand that you buy off the shelves will not do this recipe any justice The pasta will thicken up upon sitting so it is best served right away, or shortly after cooking I have even added in toasted sliced almonds to the pilaf after cooking If you want a creamier textured dish then add in another 1/2 cup broth It is important to lightly brown the orzo with the onions and garlic in butter before adding in the broth this really improves the flavor You will love this!, Hi Kitten, how are you?
