I made enough to stock up in my freezer, and am looking forward to getting through the winter months with it. I just made this soup, with barley instead of orzo. It is divine!

I felt a bit silly because my store had no escarole, so I used spinach, and I'm trying to avoid pasta, so I used wild rice instead of orzo... so I didn't even use the two major ingredients! I also swapped asiago for parmesan, since that's all I had. But even all that considered, it was AMAZING! The meatballs, the broth, the combination of the greens and the meat and the starch. Perfect. Perfect perfect. And the wild rice at the bottom of the bowl was like a little pile of hidden treasure. You have never led me astray! Thank you!! <3 smitten kitchen :) Just made this last night!

Whoops. Anyway, a wild rice medley from TJ's filled in nicely. I also added some white beans. Loved it! So I started to make this but discovered we had no orzo midway through cooking. Whoops.
