LEMON ORZO PRIMAVERA
Colorful vegetables and the flavors of lemon and thyme make this orzo dish great for picnics. You can chop the zucchini and carrot instead of grating them to cut down on prep time, just be sure to cook them for a few minutes longer before adding the orzo.

LEMON ORZO PRIMAVERA
I was looking for a recipe that could use up some of the zucchini from the garden that the hubby and the kids wouldn't turn up their noses to and I came across this gem! My 6-year-old's comment after he tasted this was: "Mommy, I love, Love, LOVE this!" I hope that you enjoy it nearly as much as he did.
