1
Cook orzo

Before starting, preheat the oven to 450˚F.Wash and dry all produce.Add 6 cups water and 1 tsp salt to a medium pot (use same for 4 ppl). Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.

Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.While the pan heats, halve tomatoes. Halve zucchini lengthwise, then cut into 1/4-inch half-moons.
