CARAMELIZED ONION AND BLUE CHEESE ORZO
Have been looking for different recipes using orzo, as it is like rice, and maybe my Cubans won't say no! So will be posting quite a few - they may not be well accepted by the residents but they are still great or even fantastic dishes! Found on the internet but can't remember exactly where. Perhaps, the blue cheese is too heavy a flavor so why not Saga's Brie & Blue Cheese? Have yet to try it but am looking for a special occasion so that I won't feel guilty about eating the cheese.
