ORZO WITH ARTICHOKES AND PINE NUTS
I love Mediterranian food. My hubby and I went to a Greek restaurant for dinner, and we were served a side dish similar to this. When we got home, Gerald asked if I could recreate the dish. After a few tries, I came up with this recipe. We love it! Hope you enjoy it as well. :) Photos: mine
