Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Cook the diced butternut squash in a pan until soft, then blend or mash it into a smooth purée.
  2. In a pot, cook the orzo in the vegetable broth over medium heat following the package instructions, stirring now and then.
  3. When the orzo is tender and most of the broth is absorbed, stir in the butter.
  4. Turn off the heat, then quickly beat in the egg, mixing constantly so it does not scramble.
  5. Stir in the squash purée and grated cheese until silky and creamy.
  6. Season with pepper to taste and serve right away.
