We love a good one-pot meal, and the Lemon Tuscan Rosemary Orzo does not disappoint. The key to this dish lies in the Tuscan Rosemary Salt.

Simplicity is at the heart of every aspect of this recipe. The Tuscan Rosemary Salt introduces the aromatic essence of piney rosemary alongside complementary notes of sage, fennel, ginger, and cinnamon. These flavors infuse the broth, thoroughly enhancing each individual piece of orzo with its tasty flavor. 

The best part? It's easy to make! The dish is made with several pantry staples you probably already have at home. 

Lemon Tuscan Rosemary Orzo makes a stunning side dish, but you might be tempted to eat the whole thing as your meal! We think that's a pretty good idea, too.
