Ingredients
8 oz dry orzo pasta2 cups shelled, thawed edamame 2 medium carrots, cut into matchsticks3 cloves garlic, minced1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced into rings1 small sweet onion, thinly sliced1/4 cup dry white wine1/4 cup tomato pureesalt and black pepper3 plum tomatoes, thinly sliced4 sprigs fresh thyme
Directions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
Add orzo and cook 5 minutes (it will only be half-done). Drain and rinse immediately with cold water, set aside.
Preheat oven to 350F. Cut four large squares of parchment paper or tin foil.
Evenly divide edamame, carrots, garlic, pepper rings, and onion between the foil packets.
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, bring wine and tomato puree to a simmer and add salt and pepper to taste.
Stir par-cooked orzo into the sauce, and spoon evenly between the foil packets.
Top each pile with slices of tomato and one sprig of thyme.
Fold up the packets, making sure a tight seal is formed along the top and sides. Place packets on a baking sheet.
Bake for 25 minutes, until the veggies and pasta are tender.
Carefully cut open each package and serve, either right out of the packet (my favourite) or after pouring into a bowl.
