Ingredients
1 1/2 cups dry orzo
1 zucchini, chopped
1 yellow squash, chopped
1 bell pepper, chopped
1 pint cherry tomatoes
1/2 red onion, chopped
3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
Juice and zest of 1 lemon
3/4 cup crumbled feta
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
Directions
Heat BlueStar oven to 425°F. Spread zucchini, yellow squash, bell pepper, cherry tomatoes, and red onion on a roasting pan or sheet pan. Toss with olive oil, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Roast until vegetables are browned at the edges and tomatoes blister but the vegetables still retain texture. Meanwhile cook orzo in salted water until just tender, then drain well. Toss hot orzo with the roasted vegetables and all flavorful roasting juices. Add lemon zest and juice, feta, and parsley. Taste and adjust seasoning. Serve warm or at room temperature.
