Not bad, but not great. I think it needs more seasoning.

This was a great recipe! I made it exactly as written, and it turned out perfectly. The orzo and green beans were cooked perfectly, and the lemon-herb sauce was delicious. I will definitely be making this again.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I often add some crumbled feta cheese or chopped walnuts for extra flavor.

This recipe was a hit at my dinner party! I doubled the recipe to serve a crowd, and it was gone in minutes. Everyone loved the bright, lemony flavor and the tender orzo and green beans.

Just okay. I found the lemon flavor to be a bit overpowering.

Easy and tasty. I omitted the lemon zest, and it was still great. Next time, I'll try adding some grilled chicken.
