This Parmesan Orzo is a great basic recipe. It's easy to follow and the results are always delicious. I like to add some chopped vegetables or herbs to give it a little extra flavor.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my Parmesan Orzo turned out really dry. Maybe I didn't use enough liquid. I'll have to try it again.

This Parmesan Orzo was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I probably won't make it again.

Meh. I wasn't really impressed with this Parmesan Orzo. It was bland and lacked flavor. I won't be making it again.

This Parmesan Orzo is a game-changer! It's so easy to make, and the flavor is out of this world. I love how the Parmesan cheese and butter give it such a rich and creamy texture. I've already made it multiple times, and my family loves it just as muc
