Ingredients

2 Tbsp Salted butter
1 Small onion finely chopped
2 Cloves Garlic minced
2 Tbsp Tomato paste
1 15oz Can Tomato sauce
4 Cups Low sodium vegetable broth
1 tsp Dried basil
1 tsp Dried oregano
1/4 tsp Red pepper flakes
1/2 tsp Sugar
1/2 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Black pepper
3/4 Cup Orzo
1 15oz Can White beans drained and rinsed

Instructions

In a large pot over medium heat, melt butter and sauté the onions until soft then add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Stir in tomato paste and cook for 2-3 minutes or until it has deepened in color.
Add the tomato sauce, vegetable broth, basil, oregano, red pepper flakes, sugar, salt, and pepper, and bring to a boil over high heat.
Reduce the heat to medium and stir in the orzo and white beans.
Cook for 7-8 minutes until the orzo is tender, stirring constantly so the orzo doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan.
Taste and add more seasonings as needed, then serve hot with garlic bread and fresh basil for garnish if desired.
