Instructions

In large skillet, cook onion in olive oil under tender. Add beef broth and bring to a boil. Stir in orzo, meatballs, tomatoes, and Italian seasoning, stir. Return to boil. Make sure orzo is covered with the liquid.

Cover and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer 7-8 minutes until liquid is reduced, stirring occasionally. You'll need to scrape the pan because the orzo tends to sink and stick to the bottom. Add plum tomatoes and cook 5-8 minutes until orzo is tender, stirring frequently. Sprinkle with cheese and serve. Serves 4-6
