Step 1

Shred the zucchini using a food processor, or by hand. Place a cheese cloth (or clean kitchen towel) over a large bowl and add the shredded zucchini. Allow it to sit for a couple of minutes, then wring out as much liquid from the zucchini as possible. Set aside.

Step 2

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the orzo and cook according to the package instructions. Drain and place the empty pot back on the stove over medium heat.

Step 3

Melt the vegan butter in the pot, then add the shallot, garlic, oregano, pepper and zucchini. Cook down for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the orzo back to the pan with the remaining ingredients. Toss everything until combined. Taste and adjust lemon juice, salt and/or pepper as needed.

Step 4

Serve hot with fresh herbs.
