🍲 Ingredients
Shrimp – A lean, healthy protein source, filled with nutrients like vitamin B12. I love shrimp because you can add it to so many recipes or eat it on its own. Olives – This orzo pasta recipe is not complete without the olives but I’m a Greek girlie. If you aren’t into olives, you can omit them. I used castelvetrano olives which have a mild, buttery flavor, but you can use whatever olives you have.
👩🍳 How to Make Orzo Pasta
🗒 Variations
Vegan: Swap out the feta for a plant-based version of crumbly cheese, use veggie stock paste in place of the chicken, and remove the shrimp. I recommend adding your favorite plant-based protein instead to make it a complete meal. Try vegan sausages or ground meat substitute Vegetarian: You can easily swap out the chicken stock paste with veggie, and swap the shrimp for a plant-based protein, and voila
