Preparation
1
Cook orzo

  • Add orzo to the boiling water. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender, 10-12 min.
  • Reserve 1/3 cup (2/3 cup) pasta water, then drain.

2
Prep and bake meatballs

  • Meanwhile, finely chop some spinach to get 1 tbsp (2 tbsp). Roughly chop remaining spinach.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 
  • Add beef, panko, half the Dill-Garlic Spice Blend, half the feta, finely chopped spinach, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) pepper to a medium bowl. Stir to combine. 
  • Roll mixture into 8 (16) equal-sized meatballs.
  • Arrange meatballs on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the middle of the oven until golden-brown and cooked through, 10-12 min.**

3
Start sauce

  • Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat, then add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter. Swirl the pan to melt. 
  • Add onions to the pan. Cook, stirring often, until softened, 3-4 min. 

4
Simmer sauce

  • Add chicken broth concentrate, sun-dried tomato pesto, remaining Dill-Garlic Spice Blend, reserved pasta water, cream and drained orzo to the pan. Cook, stirring often, until well combined, 1 min.
  • Bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens slightly, 2-4 min.

5
Finish orzo

  • Add remaining spinach and mustard to the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until wilted, 1 min. 
  • Season with salt and pepper, to taste. 
  • Remove from heat.

6
Finish and serve

  • Divide orzo between bowls.
  • Top with beef meatballs.
  • Sprinkle over remaining feta.

If you've opted to get beef, prep and cook in the same way the recipe instructs you to prep and cook the turkey.**
