Chicken Meatball & Orzo Hearty Soup

It’s my new twist on a classic hen Noodle recipe, but this specific one has much greater flavor and it’s tons more a laugh! It’s a scrumptious soup made with hen meatballs, greens, and orzo pasta.

i can’t seem to expect what my men will like these days…. properly, the infant, more or less. His flavor is converting so fast, i can’t hold up. sad news is that it’s converting for the more severe. he is getting pickier and picker. He used to love orzo and all of a surprising …” nope, no, no!” Of course, that needed to appear when i was attempting this new soup. He cherished the soup itself, picked out all the meatballs and broth however could not touch the orzo. I made it once more for him but used Ditalini and he wolfed it up.

speaking of choosy eaters, my husband may be simply as picky. He typically doesn’t consume soups (particularly if it has lots of greens in it), so once I make a soup, I make a smaller batch. Of route, he decided that he cherished this one and that i want to make more (like now)!
