Steps:
- In a large pot or Dutch oven such as Le Creuset, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions and cook over medium-low heat for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown. Add the garlic and cook for 1 more minute. Stir in the chicken stock, tomatoes, saffron, 1 tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Bring the soup to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, fill a medium pot with water, add 2 teaspoons salt and bring to a boil. Add the orzo and cook for 7 minutes. (It will finish cooking in the soup.) Drain the orzo and add it to the soup. Stir in the cream, return the soup to a simmer and cook for 10 more minutes, stirring frequently.

Steps:
- Place all ingredients except the cream and basil or dill (if using) in a large saucepan. Simmer for approximately 30 minutes, or until veggies are soft.
- Using an immersion blender, puree the veggie mixture to your preferred smoothness (I like to have some tomato chunks in it, so I leave it a little chunky. If I accidentally over-puree it, I'll cheat and add a small can of diced tomatoes).
- Add light cream (start with 1/2 cup and add more to taste -- amount will depend on flavor of the tomatoes). Heat soup gently over low heat.
- Before serving, stir in fresh herbs (if using), and season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve soup hot or chilled, whichever you prefer (hot is my preference).

EASY ROASTED TOMATO PESTO SOUP
I made this up and was so pleased at how good and easy to prepare it was, I wanted to share it. You can mix the variety of tomatoes you use. If all you have is hot house tomatoes, roasting them is a great way to bring out some flavor. You can adjust the amount of garlic, but more is better. I used prepared basil pesto sauce, but you can use your own. You can use any heart healthy oil.

Tips:
- Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes: The quality of your tomatoes will greatly impact the taste of your soup. Choose ripe, in-season tomatoes for the best flavor.
- Roast your tomatoes: Roasting tomatoes intensifies their flavor and sweetness. Roasted tomatoes also add a smoky depth of flavor to the soup.
- Use a good quality broth: The broth is the base of your soup, so it's important to use a good one. Choose a broth that is flavorful and has a rich body.
- Add some cream or milk: Cream or milk can help to thicken and enrich the soup. If you are vegan, you can use a plant-based milk such as almond milk or soy milk.
- Season to taste: Every palate is different, so season the soup to your own taste. Add salt, pepper, and other spices as desired.
- Garnish with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs can add a pop of color and flavor to your soup. Some good options include basil, parsley, and thyme.
