Notes

If the orzo looks a little tight once baked, stir through 2–3 tbsp hot water or stock to loosen. This dish is meant to be creamy and saucy it will thicken slightly as it stands.

Great meal prep recipe! I followed the same instructions but did this in the slow cooker so added the cream cheese and orzo 30 mins before the end. Trusted the process and the sauce and orzo thickened up nicely when left to stand. Have loved this for work lunches this week and took no effort at all!
