This Rachael Ray recipe is a take on the classic Italian version. I am listing this recipe as printed, however I made a few changes that we really enjoyed. First, I did half beef and half lamb in the meatballs. I had kale in the garden so that went in as well as a splash of half n half. Additional stock maybe necessary if you like a brothy soup or you can cut down on the amount of orzo as it absorbs quit a bit of broth as it sits. I finished the soup with homemade croutons. This was a real winner.
