Mediterranean Orzo Soup

This Mediterranean Orzo Soup is certain to become a family favourite. The soup is packed with a generous quantity of vegetables in a full flavoured broth, infused with the flavours of traditional Mediterranean herbs. In the culinary world, there are few things more cosy and soothing than a saucepan of soup bubbling away on the stove, and the aroma as this soup cooks, assures a comforting meal ahead. A bowl of this easily made soup requires nothing more than some crusty bread to accompany it.
