mediterranean orzo bake: 12 ounces orzo 2 1/2 cups water 1 onion jar of olives spinach 2 bell peppers 1 tablespoon lemon juice minced garlic olive oil red pepper flakes parmesan
instructions: preheat oven to 400. in a baking dish, add some olive oil, red pepper flakes, and minced garlic (I just eyeballed it). stir to combine. then, add in the diced onion, peppers, olives, orzo, and lemon juice. stir again. add in the water and stir. place the spinach on top and a drizzle of olive oil. bake for 15 minutes. take out of the oven and stir so everything is combined. it’s ok if there is still water, the orzo will soak it up.
add parmesan and stir again. then, sprinkle more on top. bake for another 15 minutes or until orzo has absorbed all the water and enjoy!
