There are lots of delicious things in the world. But we really need things that are both practical and delicious, dishes that can be made ahead, and still taste like they were made fresh. Like this Confetti Orzo.
This recipe I originally published in Fresh and Easy Kosher Cooking. It’s a great side dish that rewarms easily, can be frozen and prepped ahead.
