Soup's On

I have a love/hate relationship with cooking food while my husband is TDY (Air Force business trip); I love it because I can make things that I know he would normally not be so excited about...such as things with kale, flax, and/or bulgar and I hate it because whatever I make, since I'm a party of one, I will be eating for the next 8 days.  So, this past week I lined myself up to make dinners to share with some friends   because I had just recently gotten my Cooking Light and Clean Eating mags and I was itching to try out some recipes.  The recipe I am sharing today was the hit of the week!  It is an Italian wedding soup recipe that comes to together in less than 30 minutes and makes for a complete meal with the combination of orzo pasta, veggies, and meatballs.  This recipe makes 6 generous servings, but we (3 women, 2 kiddos, and a baby) polished off that whole pot of soup in one sitting!  Combined with whole wheat dinner rolls this soup filled our bellies and I was even a little sad about not taking home some leftovers! Oh well, I'll just have to make it again. :)
