I say cozy cause this is my favorite comfort soup, it's so rich in flavour you'll want to make it every time it rains! Ingredients:
1 tablespoon vegetable oil |
1 medium onion, chopped |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1 (398 ml) can stewed tomatoes |
4 cups vegetable stock |
2 tablespoons chopped sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, drained |
1 pinch dried chili pepper flakes (i use more cause i like it spicy!) |
1/2 cup orzo pasta |
1 (540 ml) can white kidney beans, drained and rinsed |
salt and pepper, to taste |
parmesan cheese, for topping |
Directions:
1. In a large heavy saucepan, heat the oil over medium heat.
2. Add onion and garlic, sauté for 4 minutes or until onion is soft.
3. Add tomatoes, stock, sun-dried tomatoes and pepper flakes and bring to a boil.
4. Add orzo and simmer about 12 minutes, or until pasta is cooked, stirring often to prevent sticking on the bottom.
5. Add beans and heat through, about 5 minutes.
6. Add salt and pepper to taste.
7. Serve topped with as much parmesan cheese that you like!
8. Now pick a cozy spot on the couch and enjoy!
