This is a nice complement to a number of dishes.  Since I used feta as the cheese, you want to make sure the main dish is not too strong.  I paired this with salmon but pushed the envelope a little since I topped the salmon with a red pepper cream sauce (see previous post).

Recipe
Orzo with Feta and Asparagus:

Asparagus:

  1. Take about 10 stalks and add to a double boiler 
  2. Boil for 3 or so minutes and remove from stove
  3. Cut off tops for use in the orzo (save rest of stalks for a soup)

Orzo:

  1. Boil 2 quarts of water
  2. Add 1 cup of orzo
  3. Cook for 8 – 10 minutes until al dente
  4. Drain and return to pot

Final Assemblage:

  1. To the orzo, add 1/4 cup of crumbled feta
  2. Add back in asparagus tops
  3. Mix and return to stove for 2 minutes on low heat and serve
