Heat a skillet over medium, pour olive oil, and fry garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add orzo, asparagus and toss.
Pour in a little broth to deglaze the pan, then pour in the rest and stir.
Add parsley, lemon juice, lemon zest, onion powder, salt and pepper and mix well. Bring to a low boil, then reduce to simmer and cook about 10 minutes until orzo is done.
In a small bowl, stir together the coconut milk and nutritional yeast.
Pour mixture into skillet, toss to coat, and allow to slightly thicken for a minute. It should be creamy. Add more broth if too thick.
Garnish with parsley and serve hot!
