Meiko and the Dish
Hi,I'm Meiko. Expect to find classic comfort foods like fried chicken and midwestern cobblers that’ll rival your grandmas.

This Creamy Broccoli & Cheese Orzo is classic broccoli and cheese elevated. Tiny orzo pasta is cooked in broth until al dente and then married with a creamy parmesan cheese sauce with bits of broccoli in each bite. This one-pot weeknight meal oozes comfort and can be served as a main dish or side. The best part might be the crunchy topping of golden toasted and seasoned breadcrumbs.
