I made this Roasted Tomato Orzo Soup twice last week while I was fighting a really nasty cold because it was that good and the kids kept asking for me to make it again.
The hardest part of making this soup was convincing the kids to go out and pick the tomatoes in the garden because the spiders had built a few huge webs around the plants.
It was like orchestrating an army operation to take them out.
I should have never let my kids know I hate spiders because now they all seem to be fearfull too. Luckily they were just some giant garden spiders so I bribed them to use a stick to move the webs and eventually we ended up with a few huge bowels of the most gorgeously ripe tomatoes.
Roasting the tomatoes really concentrates the flavor and the orzo adds heartiness perfect for the cooler weather.
I know you'll love this soup as much as we do!
