Use up that Zucchini!
Servings: 4 to 6
Servings: 4-6
Ingredients
- Half a box of orzo (4 servings worth)
- 2 T olive oil
- 4 to 6 cups shredded zucchini, yellow summer squash, whatever you've got
- 1 med red onion, diced
- 2 to 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 (16 oz) can diced tomatoes (or fresh if you have them)
- 6 or 7 sun dried tomatoes, cut up (I use scissors)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- ¼ tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
- 6 to 8 Fresh basil leaves, chopped
- ¾ c fresh Parmesan
- ½ c crumbled feta
Steps
- Get your orzo cooking. When it's done, drain and set aside.
- Sauté onions in oil for 5 min
- Add zucchini, cook about 10 min, til veggies are all tender
- Add garlic, tomatoes (the sun dried, too), red pepper flakes, salt and pepper.
- Simmer 5 min or so, stirring occasionally
- Remove from heat and stir in cooked orzo and basil. If you have other herbs that sound good, throw those in as well.
- Either stir in the cheeses, or if you want it to look pretty, spread the cheeses on top, top with a few basil leaves, and then just stir it up as you serve it.
- My husband adds balsamic vinegar to his, so if that sounds good to you, go for it. Enjoy!
Notes
- You will be convinced that you have way too much zucchini in there, and then when you add the orzo, suddenly it disappears and all you have is a nice pasta dish!
