Spinach Orzo

Directions

1. 1
   Rinse spinach leaves well with cold water and toss in colander to remove all but the water that clings to the leaves; set spinach aside.
2. 2
   In large skillet, heat oil over-medium heat. Add garlic and cook just until it begins to turn golden. Add drained spinach and the salt; cook, stirring occasionally, until spinach wilts. Remove from heat and set aside.
3. 3
   In 4-quart saucepan, heat broth and water to boiling over high heat. Add orzo; return to boiling and cook until tender-about 10 minutes.
4. 4
   Meanwhile, in food processor fitted with chopping blade or in blender, process spinach mixture until finely chopped. Drain orzo; place in large serving bowl. Stir in spinach mixture until well combined and serve.
