Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a medium pot, combine 1 pound of dried orzo and 4 cups of vegetable or chicken broth. Heat over medium-high, stirring frequently to prevent sticking. Cook for about 12–15 minutes or until the orzo absorbs the broth and becomes al dente.
- While the orzo cooks, prepare the cheese mixture in a blender by adding 1 cup of whole milk cottage cheese, 1 cup of finely grated Parmesan cheese, and 2 large eggs along with a pinch of kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy.
- Once your orzo is perfectly cooked, remove the pot from heat. Slowly pour in the cheese mixture, stirring continuously until everything is well combined and creamy.
- Taste your creamy cottage cheese orzo and decide if it needs a little more flavor. Adjust seasoning with additional kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper as needed.
- Serve your Creamy Cottage Cheese Orzo immediately for the best texture, enjoying the creamy, cheesy goodness.
