Suitable For 6m+

Ingredients

  • 1 small onion (diced)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 250 g mushrooms (we used a mix of shiitake, oyster, and white mushrooms; chop/dice finely for younger babies)
  • 250 g orzo
  • 250 ml soy milk
  • 375 ml vegetable stock (low salt)
  • 1/2 lemon (juice)
  • 50 g vegan cheese (grated)
  • salt and pepper (to taste, for over 12 months)
  • 100 g baby spinach (to serve, finely chop for under 18 months)

Instructions 

  • Add the olive oil, garlic & onion to a pot and cook over medium heat till soft, around 3-5mins.
  • Add the mushrooms to the pot and cook till soft, around 5 mins.
  • Add the orzo, soy milk & stock & bring to a boil. Then reduce heat to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes till the orzo is cooked and most of the liquid has been absorbed (it will keep absorbing while you serve).
  • Stir in the lemon juice, cheese, spinach, & any optional seasonings and serve.

Storage

Store in the fridge for 3 days, and reheat by adding a little water to loosen the orzo.
