Preparation

If you’re looking for an easy, comforting, weeknight recipe, this beef orzo soup will deliver!

1. In a cooking pot, heat 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil until shimmering but not smoking. Add onions, carrots, and celery. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring regularly, until softened.

2. Add ground meat and minced garlic. Season with salt, pepper, cumin, and paprika. Cook on medium-high, tossing regularly, until meat’s fully browned. (Drain any excess fat and return pot to the heat).

3. Add Pomì Organic Chopped Tomatoes and broth. Bring to a boil, then lower heat and simmer for 10 minutes.

4. Add orzo and raise the heat to medium-high. Place the lid (leaving it somewhat open) on the pot. Cook orzo to al dente (about 8 to 10 minutes).

5. Remove from heat and stir in fresh parsley. Taste and adjust seasoning to your liking.

6. Transfer to serving bowls and enjoy!
