Steps:
- In large pot of boiling lightly salted water, cook orzo for about 8 minutes or just until tender but still firm. Drain and rinse under cold water; drain and set aside.
- Meanwhile, in a large skillet, melt butter over medium-low heat; cook garlic and onion for 3-4 minutes or until onion is softened.
- Add wine and bring to a simmer; reduce heat to a medium-low and cook gently, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes or until slightly thickened.
- Add orzo to cream sauce; stirring constantly, bring to a simmer.
- Stir in chives and cheddar and blue cheeses. Season with salt and pepper.
- Sprinkle with pine nuts.
