Cute little orzo with asparagus and tomatoes

Last night for dinner, I made a delicious meal – ACCIDENTALLY! I know, I know… crazy.

Out of the random groceries I had at home today, I had the following key ingredients:

  • two tomatoes
  • garlic
  • green onions
  • three spears of asparagus
  • orzo
  • olive oil

I started the orzo, and in the meantime, peeled and cut up the tomatoes. I cut up the asparagus and steamed it, and then put it aside. Then, I sauteed the garlic, onions and tomatoes in olive oil. When the garlic was browned and everything was fully heated, I stirred in the asparagus, and I added in the orzo. After I turned off the heat, I added pepper and basil, and squeezed some lemon on top. There’s nothing better than a quick, delish one-pan meal!

Next time, I’d definitely use more asparagus and tomatoes – and maybe add some chicken. But overall, it was GREAT in a pinch!! :)

Happy Eating,

Ash
