One-pot dinners to the rescue! Since everyone seems to love orzo, we thought: why not boil it with tomatoes, shrimp, and aromatics to soak up all the flavor? Sweet green peas are tossed in at the very end, but we have a feeling even the pickiest of eaters won’t be complaining about it.

Add orzo, diced tomatoes, stock concentrates, and 4 cups water to pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cover and cook until orzo is al dente, 10-12 minutes.
