Creamy Parmesan Orzo 

Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 cup orzo
- 1-1/4 cups fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
- 1-1/4 cups water
- 1/4 cup (1 ounce) grated fresh Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 4 teaspoons pine nuts, toasted (I don't add these, they don't add much
- flavor)

Directions:
- Heat butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add orzo, and cook 3
- minutes, stirring constantly. Stir in broth and water; bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat, and simmer until liquid is absorbed and orzo is done (about 15
- minutes). Remove from heat; stir in cheese, basil, salt, and pepper.
- Sprinkle with the pine nuts. Serve immediately.
