Toasting the orzo before adding the broth adds another layer of flavor.

We like the earthy flavor of red enchilada sauce, but green enchilada sauce works well too.

For a slightly different spin, substitute yellow squash for the zucchini and a poblano for the bell pepper.

Pack these ahead to keep on hand for easy meal-prep lunches or dinners on busy nights.

Eggs are the base of the creamy sauce.

They don’t get fully cooked, so use pasteurized-in-the-shell eggs if you prefer.

Any tender, quick-cooking mushroom would work for this recipe.

Oyster mushrooms, chanterelles and shiitake mushrooms would all be delicious.

A light, creamy sauce coats both the cabbage and the pasta.

Enjoy it with a warm baguette or steamed rice.
