Chicken Orzo Soup

Ever since I made Chicken and Orzo, I have fallen in love with orzo pasta. It looks like rice, but it really is pasta. So this time I decided to make it in Chicken Orzo Soup. Of course it was delicious. And it’s the perfect food for Isaac since I don’t have to cut it into little pieces. It already is in little pieces. Little delicious pieces.
