  1. Pre-heat oven to 450 degrees. Line a small baking sheet with aluminum foil. Toss halved tomatoes with olive oil and half of the garlic.  Arrange in a single layer on lined baking sheet.  Bake for 20 minutes and set aside.
  2. Heat a large pot over medium-high heat.  Add butter and melt, then add onion and garlic.  Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant and tender.
  3. Add cream of mushroom soup, chicken stock, wine, and Oh My Spice seasoning.  Cover and bring to a boil, then add orzo, salt and pepper.  Stir until orzo is covered, then lower heat to a simmer for 7 minutes.
  4. Remove pot from heat and stir in peas, spinach, roasted tomatoes, basil, and parmesan cheese.  Cover and allow to rest for about 5 minutes or until orzo is cooked al dente and cheese is melted.
  5. Serve with fresh lemon zest, basil, and more parmesan cheese, if desired.
