    So easy to make and so delicious. I added some chopped tomato and sliced black olives for more color and flavor. Since I served this as a cold salad, I made a dressing of olive oil and lemon juice to mix in. I topped it with toasted pine nuts. A definite make-again recipe for a quick take-to-work lunch.

    I made this as a main dish because it is such an expensive side. Though a bit pricey, this recipe is absolutely delicious and I will make it again. The freshness of the herbs mixed with the earthiness of the chickpeas and vegetables...plus a tang of cheese...it is really good. You could add some shrimp or cooked chicken to make it into a meal but I made it as it is written and served it with crusty bread.

    Made this tonight and it was great! It looked and sounded good to me and it turned out better than I thought it would. I was skeptical of the mint so I only added a little bit. After tasting it, I added more. When we went back for seconds, I stirred in some leftover Creamy Corn, another RR recipe, which tasted even better. Super good recipe!!!

    We made this last night to accompany a marinated skirt steak with Chimichurri sauce and salad. It was perfect! Everyone cleaned there plates and some had seconds. I used goat cheese feta and will again. I might even add more mint next time. I saved this to my recipe box and will make it again frequently, I'm sure.

    The mint in this dish is what caught my attention, but i admit I was a little leery. This dish is amazing!! My husband couldn't stop complimenting this dish. I will definitely make it again!

    This was a Great Recipe! It was fast, easy, and full of flavor. I was watching Food Network, and a quick 1 minute Rachael Minute popped up with this recipe. I found it because she made it look so good on TV. I'll just tell you, it's even better then she shows. The portion size is so filling, I couldn't finish it. It's my new favorite recipe!

    Absolutely LOVED this dish. Right when I saw Rachael making it on TV, I knew I had to try it. I made this dish with cannelini beans instead of chick peas because that's all I had on hand. I also added lemon juice and zest as some of the other reviewers suggested (totally made the recipe better, and I omitted the mint. The crunch of the zuchini mixed with the salty tang of the cheese and the softness of the orzo was PERFECT. I had it for leftovers today and it was still amazing. Gonna take the rest to work tomorrow!

    This is a sure winner recipe. I didn't have any orzo when I decided to make it, so I used bulgar wheat. Also substituted some leeks for the onion since I had some frozen from my garden. It's great as a cold salad the next day, too. Thanks Rachael!

    Was very easy to make. To give it a little more zing, I added a little white wine after sauteing the zucchini & onions along with some crushed red pepper flakes, oregano, thyme, and basil from the garden. For a final touch I added a couple handfuls of baby spinach and some grape tomatoes.
