Cook pasta in large pot of salted water as directed for al dente.

Step 2

Reserve about 1/2 cup liquid before draining. Drain orzo in a colander and add the oil to the pot.

Saute garlic 1 minute, until fragrant, add the zucchini and tomatoes, season with salt and pepper and mix well. Cook until tender, 3 to 4 minutes.

Step 4

Add the cooked orzo and stir to combine all. Add some of the reserved liquid as needed so pasta isn't dry.

Step 5

Add freshly grated cheese and stir.
