Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C fan. Place the chopped vegetables and garlic into a baking tin. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper; mix to combine.

Place in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the vegetables are soft.

Cook the orzo: Remove from the oven and add the tin of chopped tomatoes and orzo. Pour in the boiling water, adding more if needed to cover the orzo. Add Mani Life Almond Nut Butter and 1 tsp of salt. Mix the whole dish well. Return everything to the oven for a further 20-25 minutes.

Once the orzo is soft and has absorbed the water, remove from the oven, and stir through the spinach. Squeeze lemon juice and top with the fresh basil before serving
