Ingredients
1 cup Califia Farms Pumpkin Spice Almond Creamer
1 cup Califia Farms French Vanilla Almond Creamer
1 cup orzo
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons vegan butter
1 cup kale, de-stemmed and chopped
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried parsley
Pinch of ground cinnamon
Your favorite nuts, toasted + chopped (optional)
Dried cranberries (optional)
Pumpkin seeds (optional)
Directions
01
In a medium saucepan or pot over medium-high heat, add the butter until melted. Add in the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until brown and fragrant, stirring occasionally to prevent burning. Add in the salt, garlic powder, and parsley, stirring until combined
02
Add in the orzo, Califia Farms Pumpkin Spice Creamer, Califia Farms French Vanilla Creamer, and kale, stirring everything together until combined. Bring to a boil for 2-3 minutes before reducing heat to low and letting it simmer for 15-20 minutes
03
Once the orzo is soft, has swelled, and the liquid has mostly dried, remove from heat and serve immediately. Top with your favorite chopped nuts, dried cranberry, and pumpkin seeds, if desired. Enjoy!
