Good but definitely needs more flavor! Will try again with some additions to jazz it up a little more.

This was just ok. I added a little garlic salt for flavor. I liked it because it's a great way to get my kids to eat veggies, but it took them about an hour to finish. :(

I was not fond of the orzo, it was different tasting and I thought the recipe was a little blah, I had never tried Orzo before?

A quick and easy recipe. It looks like a dish served in a fine restaurant.

This is a SUPER easy recipe. I added some garlic powder at the same time I added the veggies. I also used frozen veggies that I defrosted before adding; they worked just as well. I got crazy with the basil before eating it, but it is definitely a new favorite side dish with fish!

I just made this and I was a little nervous, but it is so yummy! I can't wait to see if my 6 year old loves it, but I think she will. I added onion, green & red bell, carrots, peas, and some asparagus I had left in the fridge. I chopped everything small to be kidfriendly... delish! Easy too!

Absolutely delicious and easy to make. I added a variety of vegetables and mushrooms. Highly recommended.
