orzo

ok so i think i need to take pictures of what i cook because i think just writing about what i am making is not really doing it justice.

last night i made an orzo pasta thing. started out with preparing the orzo. in case you did not know what this was it is a pasta that is shaped like rice. interesting i know, but at the same time very delicious. sauted some garlic, sweet onion and zucchini in to this... sweat it out a bit salt and pepper. thought about wilting some spinach leaves in to the dish but enough green. added about 1/2 cup halved grape tomatoes. sauted. then you drain and add the pasta in and let them cook together a bit.. add more olive oil if needed. salt pepper.

over all this was a pretty tasty dish. really easy and pretty good. i thought it could have used something extra, but i couldn't put my finger on it. maybe something nutty to counter act the sweet from the tomato, but i dont know.

i am going to ask for cooking lessons for my birthday. what do you think?

taking the dog for a walk tonight. he needs it! :)
