Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup orzo pasta
  • 1 (15 oz) can beef broth
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1 tbsp butter or 1 tbsp margarine
  • 1/2 cup finely sliced carrot (optional)

Directions:

  1. Bring broth, water, butter, salt and pepper to a simmer.
  2. Add carrots and cook for 5 minutes. If not using carrots skip this step.
  3. Stir in orzo and allow to cook uncovered over medium-low heat for 20 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent clumping of the pasta.
  4. If you are adding any extras like cooked meat, onions or other vegetables, add during the last five minutes of cooking in order to heat them through. Pour into a big bowl and dig in!
