I made some and just added spinach and it's really blah. I have a ton left and was looking for some ideas on what to do with it!

Lemon and some kind of salty cheese for a side.
Or make some Avgolemono which is a soup with some chicken stock, lemon juice, orzo and tempered eggs.

I make a salad out of it, Greek-style. Once the orzo is cooked, I add:
1 lemon, juiced and zested
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup pine nuts, lightly toasted
1 small red onion, finely chopped
1/2 cup flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
1 cup feta cheese crumbles
1/4 cup kalamata olives
2 roma tomatoes, diced
1/2 cucumber, diced
salt & pepper to taste
8 Greek hot peppers, for garnish

What is Orzo?
I am assuming it is some sort of starch.

Orzo is a small pasta that almost looks like rice.

I have only ever used it like pastina, in soups. I never particularly liked it for some reason.

Orzo is good for soups since it is sort of rice size noodle.

Frog Eye Salad!!
4 oz.(1/2 cup) Orzo pasta
1 can pineapple chunks
1 can mandarin oranges
Dressing:
1/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1 tbsp. flour
1/4 tsp. salt
500 ml Cool Whip(small container or 1/2 regular container)
Juice from canned fruit
Optional Ingredients:
1 cup shredded coconut
Any available fresh fruit
1 cup mini marshmallows
Boil pasta according to package directions until al dente(cooked but firm, about 8 minutes). Drain into a colander, rinse with cold water, set aside and let cool.
While pasta is cooking drain juice from canned fruit into a saucepan with the egg, sugar, flour and salt. Whip with hand whisk before heating.
Heat pan with medium heat and keep whisking the dressing until it thickens. Remove from heat and let cool.
In a large bowl mix together drained canned fruit, cooled pasta and dressing from the saucepan. Fold in Cool Whip until totally immersed with salad. Move salad to a smaller bowl and refrigerate for 2 hours to thicken.
Add Bullfrog eyes for garnish before serving (sorry I couldn't resist!)
*You can use different fruits than the ones in the recipe if you like. If you prefer to use fresh fruits rather than canned you can make the dressing with any fruit juice you like. Use about 1 cup for this recipe.
