1/2 c. Orzo Pasta
1/2 c. Uncooked White Rice
2 c. Chicken Broth
Directions:
In a medium saucepan, melt butter of med-high heat. Add orzo and stir until pasta browns.
Add rice and chicken stock.
Bring to boil, reduce heat to low and cover. 20 minutes later, fluff with a fork!
I add peas to it at the end in order to get more veggies into the girls :)
I also took a picture a little while ago of the Beef and Spinach Curry that I have on the menu plan for this week, thought it might encourage a few of you to make it! I just bought two 1 1/2 lb flank steaks at Costco for $14.00 Not organic or grass fed, but this meal is too good to pass it by due to our budget. I added a link to the pic just in case:)
Enjoy!
Thanks!

I stumbled on your blog looking for a recipe for homemade Near East rice pilaf- and the results were 5 star!! I actually didn't have any white rice in the house- we also converted to brown rice a year or so ago- but the result was still great, although I think I'd prefer white because the orzo cooked slightly too long. I also added some dried onion flakes, and turmeric for color. Super easy and tastes almost exactly like from the box! And as a fan of frugal, homemade, and healthy, I will definitely be coming back to your blog in the future :)
