Hi Friends!<\/p>\n

I’m back with\u00a0another delicious pasta recipe for you! I’m working with Pasta Fits<\/a> this fall to share some delicious pasta recipes and show you how it can fit into a healthy diet. It’s a great way to add protein and a fiber and it’s the perfect vehicle for delivering lean meats, veggies and a nutritious sauce straight to your mouth! In case you missed the first recipe, be sure to check out my Stovetop Mac and Cheese with Sausage and Peas<\/a>!<\/p>\n

This month we’re celebrating the fact that October is National Pasta Month! We all know I’m a huge pasta fan, but growing up I tended to stick to the same few kinds- spaghetti, shells and elbows. That was about it. It wasn’t until a few years ago that I expanded my pasta horizons and tried orzo! I was instantly hooked! I love the shape, how quickly it cooks, etc.<\/p>\n

\"All<\/p>\n

My goal for this month was to create a one pot meal. I didn’t want to make one using spaghetti noodles because I feel like there are so many of those out there. Instead I chose orzo and set out to make a dish that kinda resembled risotto without all the constant stirring.<\/p>\n

It worked perfectly! This is a one dish wonder. The orzo cooks right in the pan in some broth and then you add the shrimp during the last few minutes so they end up perfectly cooked and not overdone! Finish it off with some goat cheese for added creaminess and you’ve got a real winner in my book.<\/p>\n

So here’s how you make it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\n<\/symbol>\n<\/defs>\n<\/svg>\nPrint<\/a><\/span>
