Add a photoDo you have leftover ground meat sauce and are looking for a new way to use it? Then whip up this simple, comforting soup in less than 20 minutes. With the cooler days of fall and winter approaching, this dish is sure to warm up your body and soul.
Ingredients
- 4 cups (1 L or 1000 ml) low-sodium chicken broth (or water, plus 1 cube or 1 tbsp loose chicken bouillon)
- 3 cups (750 ml) leftover ground meat sauce (bolognese or ragu)
- 1 cup (200 g) orzo pasta
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 handful grated romano cheese (Parmesan or Grana Padano Cheese taste also delicious)
Directions
- Bring chicken broth (or water with chicken bouillon) and leftover meat sauce to a boil in a large pot, over high heat. Add orzo pasta and stir frequently so it doesn’t stick at the bottom. When the soup comes to a boil, reduce heat to medium and simmer till the orzo is cooked, about 12-13 minutes or according to package instructions. Remove pot from heat, stir in butter and cheese, and serve immediately. Top with extra cheese, if desired.
