This dish brings a balanced mix of textures and flavors perfect for a wholesome meal.
INGREDIENTS
1/3 cup dry Orzo Pasta (approx. 40g)
3/4 cup Kidney Beans (approx. 130g)
3/4 cup Cannellini Beans (approx. 130g)
1 tsp Olive Oil (approx. 5g)
1 cup Fresh Spinach (approx. 30g)
1 clove Garlic (approx. 3g)
1/3 cup Non-Fat Greek Yogurt (approx. 80g)
1 cup Vegetable Broth (approx. 240g)
PREPARATION
In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the dry orzo and toast it lightly for 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a simmer. Cook the orzo according to package instructions, stirring occasionally until the pasta is tender and has absorbed most of the liquid.
Gently stir in the kidney beans, cannellini beans, and fresh spinach. Allow the spinach to wilt and the beans to heat through, about 3 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the non-fat Greek yogurt until a creamy consistency is achieved. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve warm and enjoy a nutritious, balanced meal that is both hearty and light.
