LEMONY MUSHROOM ORZO SOUP
My grandmother used to make a similar classic Greek soup, avgolemono, every Sunday after church. Here's my version of her recipe. The kids and I came up with this variation while experimenting with different ingredients. I think my yia-yia would be proud. -Nick Haros, Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania
