Spanikopita Orzo

Yum! This is soooo good!

Ingredients

1/2 pound orzo

2 tablespoons Olive Oil

1 small onion, finely chopped

3 to 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped or grated

1/2 cup vegetable stock

3 cups spinach, divided

1 cup feta cheese, crumbled

Preparation

1. Place a large pot of water over high heat to boil the orzo. Salt the boiling water and cook the pasta to al dente according to package directions. Drain the cooked pasta and reserve.

2. Meanwhile, place a large skillet over medium-high heat with olive oil. Add the onion and garlic and saute until tender.

3. While the veggies are cooking, add the vegetable stock and about 2 cups of spinach to the bowl of a food processor (I used a blender and it worked fine) and process until smooth. Add the puree to the pan with the onion and garlic to heat through, about 30 seconds. Remove pan from heat and stir in the reserved orzo, remaining whole leaves of spinach, feta, and some salt and pepper.

4. Make yummy food sounds while you eat :)
