One-Pot Orzo with Sausage, Spinach and Corn

Added red bell peppers and a little bit of cream. Came out tasty!

Added red pepper flake and fresh basil

Used spicy Italian sausage, added cherry tomatoes, a little cream, red pepper flakes and Italian seasoning. Swapped spinach for Swiss Chard and Kale.

Works with 1c rice 2c broth. Longer simmer time. Still good. Added diced tomatoes too

Added paprika, garlic & heavy cream

Used Ditalini pasta (couldn’t find orzo). Would add more corn and spinach next time just to add volume. Otherwise easy to make and tastes great.

A regular in our house, my local grocery store rarely has chichen sausage in casings so I use spicy pork. Delicious, savory, filling, and makes very easy leftovers!

Add 1 zucchini, smoked paprika, splash of cream or half and half

Delicious. I’m not a corn person, I might try again with some zucchini

Good and truly one pot- next time I will season a bit more!

Turkey sausage - gross. Get real sausage next time.

Extremely good! Even the kids enjoyed it!

I added garlic with the onion and didn’t follow the measurements much and ended up about doubling it. I used better than bouillon instead of broth, I always do that. But this was wonderful, even my dad went back for seconds and he doesn’t generally like pasta dishes. My kids liked it as well!

Didn’t have any orzo so subbed in some cavatappi and forgot the spinach. Still was great and easy. Minimal dishes required.

I sliced smoked sausage instead of using ground. I also added red bell pepper, garlic salt, paprika, and extra parmesan. Easy and yummy meal.

Used smoked sausage and zucchini instead of spinach. Also added a few Cajun shrimp to mine. I added garlic salt and Kosher salt to taste. Pretty good for being simple!

I make my own italian sausage...it's much easier and tastier to boot.

I used Aidells Italian chicken and mozzarella sausage. I also added lemon juice and cherry tomatoes. It was so pretty in color. Kiddos loved it too. Will definitely be in rotation for dinner ideas.

Used a full onion and spicy sausage. Added garlic powder, paprika, and a little red pepper flakes.

It was fine but underwhelming.

Very flavorful. Added a little salty and pepper with orzo. Also, used pre-cooked chicken sausage and used slices because that's all I had.

Doubled the onion, added a red pepper, seasoned salt, Italian seasoning, crushed red pepper, lemon juice, extra parmesan, just over 2 cups chicken stock, cooked an extra 5 min.

Absolute YUM!!!!! However, I used full sodium chicken broth and Italian pork sausage, because it had been in my freezer forever. I will make this dish again and again, but will use the chicken sausage next time.

Super easy to make for a quick and healthy meal. Added paprika and tumeric, also needed to add more water.

Added chili powder, a splash of heavy cream

Literally one of my favorite staples

Remove the sausage from the casing and add it to a heavy bottom sauce pot or Dutch oven. Cook over medium-high heat for 5 minutes, breaking it up with a wooden spoon. Add the onion and corn (no need to thaw) and sauté for 10 minutes. Add the orzo and chicken broth, stir to combine then bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low and simmer 10 minutes, stirring every few minutes and scraping the bottom of the pot to make sure the orzo doesn’t stick. Remove from the heat, add the spinach, stir and cover for a couple minutes, until the spinach has wilted. Top with freshly grated parmesan and black pepper, to taste and serve.

Used fresh corn...was good and cozy, but might add extra onion and some corn on top at the end for a little more punch.

Quick and yummy!!

I bumped up the seasoning a little.

I used only 2 cups of chicken stock and used quick barley instead of orzo. ** Made with orzo, used 3 cups of stock and it was soupy. Do 2 next time. Also, added green bell peppers and skipped the spinach.
