Lemony Mushroom & Orzo Soup with Tuna-Tomato Sourdough ToastLemony Mushroom & Orzo Soup with Tuna-Tomato Sourdough Toast — a 40-minute dinner recipe with 14 ingredients, serving 6.Ingredients

2839 ml chicken or vegetable broth

3 (170 g) cans chunk light tuna in water

0.68 kg cremini mushrooms

1 ½ lemons

170 g orzo pasta

6 slices sourdough bread

3 tomatoes

1 ½ medium yellow onions

black pepper

dill, dried

extra virgin olive oil

mayonnaise

salt

thyme, dried

Instructions

Wash and dry the fresh produce.

Thinly slice mushrooms. Place in a medium bowl.

Preheat a large pot over medium heat.

While the pot heats up, peel, halve, and small dice onions. Add to the bowl with the mushrooms.

Once the pot is hot, add oil and swirl to coat the bottom. Add the mushrooms, onion, and spices. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are tender, 10-12 minutes. (Reserve bowl for the next step.)

Meanwhile, drain tuna, place in the reserved bowl, and flake with a fork. Add mayo and spices, then stir to combine the tuna salad. Set aside.

Slice tomatoes crosswise into thin rounds and set aside.

When the mushrooms are tender, zest and juice lemons into the pot, then add broth and orzo. Stir to combine the soup and bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low and cook until the pasta is tender, 7-8 minutes. Remove from heat.

Meanwhile, preheat oven to broil on high and position the rack in the upper third of the oven. (Skip this step if you are using a toaster for the bread.)

Arrange bread slices on a large baking sheet pan. Place in the oven and broil until toasted, 1-2 minutes. Remove from oven. (Alternatively, you can use a toaster.)

Divide tuna salad between toasted bread and top with tomato slices. Season with salt and pepper.

Divide soup between bowls and serve with tuna-tomato toast on the side. Enjoy!
