Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1
    Heat olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat. Sauté sun-dried tomatoes and onion for 3-4 minutes, until onion is softened.
  2. 2
    Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds, then stir in orzo. Sauté orzo for 1-2 minutes to coat with oil.
  3. 3
    Pour in vegetable broth, Italian herbs, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then simmer uncovered for 10-12 minutes, stirring often, until orzo is tender and most liquid is absorbed.
  4. 4
    Reduce heat to low. Add heavy cream and spinach, stirring until spinach wilts, about 2-3 minutes.
  5. 5
    Remove from heat. Stir in Parmesan until melted and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste. Serve immediately, topped with more Parmesan and basil.
