ROASTED VEGETABLE ORZO MEDLEY
Got this recipe from my God-Sister on our trip to the beach. It's fabulous. The roasted vegetables gives it a savory taste like you worked all day on it. You can add any vegetable that you like. The mushrooms add something really special and hearty. You can also add sauted chicken or sausage to it. You can also add other spices as well. It looks like rice but it's pasta! I hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

This was something I came up with yesterday, virtually on the spot. I was hungry for some warm vegetables and came up with this. These are vegetables that I already had so luckily I didn't have to go out to get anything. the only thing with this recipe is that the each vegetable is cut differently.

- Cook the orzo according to the package directions: Orzo is a small pasta that cooks quickly, so be sure to follow the package directions carefully to avoid overcooking it.
