This soup is cozy yet refreshing and easy to make. We add sautéed bell pepper and onions to a chicken stock base with other heathy vegetables. The star of the show will be the orzo, which is a small grain shaped type of pasta that we will add towards the end. This delicious, balanced soup is sure to warm your heart.
