Italian

This whole dinner comes together in about 15 minutes. There are just days when you can’t make everything from scratch. You need something you can get on the dinner table quickly.

Orzo is a wonderful, tiny pasta. This is the most requested side dish recipe I get from dinner guests–but watch your portion size. Enjoy!

Best served over ravioli; especially a pumpkin ravioli or a butternut squash ravioli.

Let cool to warm or room temperature before serving; the soup will thicken as it cools. Serve with additional grated Parmesan at the table.

There's a thing called a "fresh" sauce in Italian cooking. It just means the ingredients are fresh and you never heat them up.
