We made this as a side for dinner tonight. It was ok but we all felt it was lacking something, I will play a bit if I make this again.

This is a nice pasta recipe that I think could be used as a side or main dish. I made it tonight for a special Valentine's Day dinner for my DH using orzo pasta. Whisked the mixture while slowly adding the egg mixture and did add more cheese. Thanks sweetie for posting!
