Looks perfect the for cold weather we are having in Michigan! Can’t wait to make it!
I didn’t know weekday to cook for dinner and I had all these ingredients except the chicken. This was easy to put together. We prefer creamy, ticket soups and my family loved this thanks for sharing!
Very tasty. I changed it up a little. I used Greek yogurt in place of the sour creme and added a California blend of veggies. Served it up with a toasted baguette. Perfection! Will make again.
I tried this recipe and it tastes great! I used more orzo and chicken stock, but it’s still creamy proportionate. I didn’t use any additional salt. Very good!
I just made this and OMG!!! I only had beef bone broth on hand. It came out way thicker than your video, but holy soup! Delicious isn’t enough to describe how incredibly yummy this is!
found this on tic tok just made it today. this soup is delicious!!!!
I made this tonight. I adapted it a little. Started with some sautéed onion celery and garlic in the bottom of the stock pot. Then I added broccoli florets and corn. It as incredible. I will make this again. Next I’ll add sliced baby bellas at the end.
The flavor is amazing! Will definitely make over and over! I’ve never made orzo before and we love it!
