I make this dish a lot, we love it! But this time I decided to use red pesto instead of green and instead of the beans I added cut up tenderstem broccoli and peas that I had pre cooked, right at the end. Absolutely delicious, I think we prefer it!!

In reply to sue Greaves. Hey Sue, yes you could use red pesto it will change the flavour as green pesto is made with a basil base and red pesto is sundried tomato. Hope that helps!

This was so easy and tasty! I didn’t have quite enough orzo- I made up the difference by using smashed up bits of pasta that were left in the cupboard.

Added ½ red pepper and ½ green pepper leftover from the previous nights meal. I boiled the beans for a couple of minutes before I added them to the pan and they were perfect, with a little bit of bite
