MEATBALLS WITH ORZO
Servings: 4-6

This recipe is a combination of several old family favorites. Orzo is a rice shaped pasta that cooks nicely with the other ingredients so this is a one pot meal.

1 onion, chopped
1 Tbsp. olive oil
14 oz. can ready to serve beef broth
1 cup uncooked orzo pasta
1 lb. frozen cooked meatballs (or you own)
14 oz. can Italian flavored diced tomatoes, undrained
4 plum tomatoes, chopped
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

In large skillet, cook onion in olive oil under tender.

Add beef broth and bring to a boil. Stir in orzo, meatballs and tomatoes, stir. Return to boil. Cover and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer 7-8 minutes until liquid is reduced, stirring occasionally.

Add plum tomatoes and cook 5-8 minutes until orzo is tender, stirring frequently.

Sprinkle with cheese and serve.
