EASY LEMONY ORZO WITH ROASTED VEGETABLES AND FETA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400° F.
• Toss the bell peppers, onion, and eggplant with the olive oil, thyme, salt, and pepper on a large sheet pan. Roast the vegetables for about 20 minutes, and then toss in the garlic. (Do not add it earlier or it will burn). Roast for about 20 minutes more, or until browned, turning once or twice with a large spatula.
• Meanwhile, cook the orzo in plenty of boiling salted water for about 7 minutes, until tender. Do not over cook. Drain the orzo and transfer to a large serving bowl. When the roasted vegetables are done and while they are still warm, add them to the pasta, scraping all the liquid and seasonings from the roasting pan into the pasta bowl.
• To make the dressing, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. (It makes more than what you will actually need for this recipe)
• Pour some (but not all of the dressing) on the pasta and vegetables. Let everything come to room temperature, then add the toppings: scallions, pine nuts, Greek Feta, and fresh basil. Gently toss everything to combine. Taste and adjust the seasonings. Serve at room temperature.
