Orzo With Spinach and Tomatoes

Cook orzo according to package directions.

Pile spinach leaves in stacks and thinly slice leaves to make spinach confetti. Place the spinach into the bottom of a large glass bowl.

Cut the tomatoes in half and add them into the bowl as well as the lemon zest. You can save the lemons for another recipe!

Add the hot cooked and drained orzo to the bowl. The heat of the pasta will wilt the spinach and warm the tomatoes. Drizzle the olive oil over the pasta and toss to combine. Add in the chopped fresh basil and salt and pepper to taste. Top with Parmesan cheese.
