CHICKEN ORZO DINNER WITH GRILLED CHEESY VEGETABLES
After receiving a free box from Hello Fresh, we decided to try the service out because we liked it so much and were impressed with the recipes and quality of the food. We soon realized that this food subscription box would work perfectly for our homeschool cooking class and the added perk is that it has enlivened our menu and brought our cookbook to life!
We ordered the box for two people with three meals, so a total of six meals for about $60. At $10 a meal, some would argue they could just eat out or buy far cheaper food from the grocery store and feed three times as many. While both statements are true, what that won't do is inspire you to cook, try new ingredients and recipes and enliven your menu with new recipes. For me, $60 is a cooking class for the kids and me, delicious meals, new recipes and ingredients we get to try and most importantly, we now have several new recipes that we cook often, love and have become family favorites. That's definitely worth $60.
Today's recipe is easy and inspires anyone to eat more vegetables. The chicken and pasta are simple, but the zucchini is what takes this meal over the top. You'll want to make this just for the grilled zucchini with browned parmesan cheese.
Shortcut to zucchini recipe:
Slice one zucchini with medium slices. Cut one roma tomato into wedges. Toss both with olive oil, salt, pepper and italian seasoning. Roast at 350 for about 10 minutes. Remove from oven and top with 1/4 of parmesan, 1/4 cup of panko bread crumbs, some cut up fresh mozzarella, and salt & pepper (optional). Broil until melted and browned.
Serve with pan grilled chicken breast that's been butterflied and seasoned with Italian seasoning and orzo pasta.
Be sure to visit Tanya's channel, after all, she's the one that shared a free box with us :)

Orzo Mediterranean Pasta
I love the flavor of this dish because it’s so tangy and fresh. It offers the intensity of the sun-dried tomatoes, the tartness of the olives, the creaminess of the feta, and the wonderful crunch you get with the pine nuts (I’m always a sucker for that little bit of crunch). This recipe is colorful, refreshing, and a good dish for entertaining because it’s easy to make in large quantities.
Being Greek, I grew up with this dish, and it’s a nice, simple recipe that might make you want to throw a plate to the ground and get excited. Opa! One confession is that this one is not really kid-friendly in my house because my kids haven’t yet fallen in love with Kalamata olives like I have. Haven’t tried Kalamata? You just gotta.
