Perfectly cheesy butternut squash orzo as The Slop Series Episode 2! Proving once and again that “slop” is a valid food group and one we shall celebrate this fall 😌
This orzo is loosely based off of my old Trader Joe’s Butternut Mac n’ Cheese recipe, and when I asked my fiancé if I should call this “Cheesy Butternut Squash Orzo” or “Butternut Squash Orzo with Spiced Breadcrumbs” and he voted for the first. Even when I argued that it didn’t sound as classy, he said cheesy things just automatically sound more delicious. And I really can’t argue with that.
This orzo IS cheesy and IS delicious, but while it’s creamy, rich and filling, it’s still light enough to keep you going through the rest of the day. It’s one of my favorite fall meals, and I hope it might make it to your table 🍂
Happy slop-ing 🙂
