Tomato Spinach Orzo Soup

Sometimes it's the simplest meals that are best! This may be super quick and easy (only 7 ingredients and 30 minutes) but it's FULL of delicious flavor and fun texture from the orzo. I may be a bit biased since I'm a soup year-round kind of girl, but this lighter take is great all year, even if you don't normally prefer soup in the summer. Plus it's another great use for that beautiful, fresh basil! 💚 Topping off this soup with a small mountain of basil (if you have any available) adds so much bright, summery flavor and fresh goodness .

1. 1 onion
2. 3-4 cloves garlic
3. 28 oz. can diced tomatoes
4. 1/2 cup orzo pasta
5. 2-3 cups fresh baby spinach
6. 4 cups vegetable broth

9. Recommended: fresh basil for serving
