Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Orzo

    In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the orzo pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

    In the same pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour and whisk continuously for about 1 minute until it forms a paste. Gradually add the milk while whisking, until smooth. Cook until the mixture thickens, about 3-5 minutes.

    Add the Cheeses

    Remove the pot from heat and stir in the cheddar, mozzarella, and parmesan cheeses until melted and smooth. Season with salt, black pepper, and paprika.

  4. 4
