This dish was a little too bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had used a spicier sausage. The orzo was cooked perfectly and the sauce was creamy and flavorful.

This dish was a little bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had used a spicier sausage. The orzo was cooked perfectly and the sauce was creamy, but it needed a little more flavor.
