Enjoy! Hi Carolynne — I think you could definitely use spinach, but put it in only in the last minute or two; it cooks very quickly. Enjoy!

I have been wanting to make this soup for awhile and finally have a lot of the ingredients in my fridge with plans to make this for dinner tonight. =) I do have a quick question in regards to an ingredient substitution and wanted your opinion. I got some beautiful baby spinach from the farmer's market this weekend and was wondering if I could use it in place of the escarole. Will it hold up as well in the soup? Or should I just stop on the way home and pick up some escarole? Thanks for your advice! LOVE love LOVE your blog. =) Hey Deb!

It was wonderful, definitely a keeper! Thanks for sharing this one. :) We made this last week, with kale instead of chard or escarole – my friend says kale looks like Henry Rollins in a tutu – and lots more carrots.

It does turn into stoup the next day as the orzo soaks up most of the broth, but that's no problem flavor-wise. In answer to Jennbec's question and Deb's speculation: I'm in the process of moving my blog over to wordpress, and the person doing my redesign just informed me today, in fact, that if you self-host on wordpress, the sky's the limit for functionality, but that if you let wordpress host, there are many limitations.

I like the meatballs cooked ahead of time, though, and added back in at the end. The carrot seems like a really great addition; I love the mix of green and orange, and carrot is a natural with chicken broth. I will try this for sure! I adore IWS.
