Tonight's soup was "Tomato Basil Soup with Orzo." I made it once before when Leyna was 1 year old and she loved it so I was hoping it would still be a hit. Leyna had 2 bowls and Cora was even willing to eat some if I fed it to her like a baby bird. She has been on a dinner strike for about a week so that's really saying something!
I found the recipe a way back then on a baby board so that's about all I know of it's origins. It is SO easy to pull together and not too expensive either. Hope you make it and like it!
Tomato Basil Soup with Orzo
Ingredients
1 T olive oil
2 cloves garlic, chopped fine
2 cans (14.5 oz) chicken broth (I used homemade)
2 cans diced tomatoes
1/2 C orzo
1 C chopped fresh basil
salt & pepper to taste
Parmesan cheese to taste
Directions
Heat olive oil in a soup pot and saute garlic until fragrant. Add broth and tomatoes and bring to a boil. Add orzo and simmer for about 10 minutes, or until orzo is tender. Stir in basil, salt, pepper, and Parmesan and simmer 3-4 minutes more. Serve with more Parmesan on top and some crusty bread for dipping.
