Print Recipe

This Dump & Bake Marry Me Orzo Bake is a creamy, easy-to-make comfort dish with sun-dried tomatoes, broccoli, and Parmesan.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb orzo pasta
  • 3 cups broccoli florets
  • 3 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 teaspoon oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 handfuls fresh spinach, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Mix the orzo, broccoli, vegetable broth, heavy cream, sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, salt, red pepper flakes, oregano, black pepper, and smoked paprika in a large bowl until well combined.
  3. Pour the mixture into the greased baking dish, spreading it evenly. Cover loosely with foil.
  4. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the orzo is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
  5. Remove from the oven, stir in Parmesan and spinach, and let sit before serving.

Notes

Use small, evenly cut broccoli florets for even cooking. If sun-dried tomatoes are oil-packed, pat them dry before chopping.
