For a richer flavor, use vegetable or chicken broth instead of water. Feel free to experiment with different types of mushrooms. Wild mushrooms like porcini or chanterelles would add a unique depth of flavor. To make this dish vegetarian, ensure that the Parmesan cheese is made with vegetarian rennet. This Mushroom Orzo is delicious on its own as a light meal, or as a side dish to grilled chicken, fish, or vegetables.
