One Pan Baked Feta Veggie Orzo

 Let’s get all those veggies into one pan creamy baked feta dish.

One of my biggest objectives in the kitchen is to incorporate more veggies into our diet. With this one pan dish we get it all. Yummy creamy feta pasta with those fine chopped veggies. We add some chili pepper flakes a little heat and everything becomes smooth and delicious.

The beauty of this dish is that you can sub in most any veggies in this dish, like fine chopped mushrooms, broccoli, baby spinach, bell pepper or tomatoes! Please do not squeeze out any liquids from the veggies. If you don’t want to use milk, you can use more broth in its place.
