Another winner from Lucy Waverman, who says: "Orzo is pasta shaped like rice. It cooks quickly and doesn't go mushy. I prefer the feta to be Greek but any will do." It's super fast, and quite filling. We loved this, hope you do too!

This recipe met my three top criteria when cooking: fast, easy and delicious. I can't believe I've been making mac & cheese (Kraft Dinner for my Canadian friends) all these years when this recipe gives the same satisfaction as "comfort food" but with much more flavor and nutrition. The mint adds a great flavor. This recipe is perfect for lunch or as a side at dinner. It's definitely a keeper.
