Instructions

1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Cook the diced onion until golden, then stir in the garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
2. Add the diced carrot and yellow bell pepper and cook for about 5 minutes until they begin to soften.
3. Stir in the tomato paste, cumin, oregano, turmeric, paprika and salt. Stir for a minute so the spices bloom.
4. Add the broth (vegetable or chicken), bring to a simmer and cook for about 20 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
5. Stir in the orzo and simmer for 10 minutes, until tender but not mushy. It will thicken the soup as it absorbs broth.
6. Add the spinach and stir until it wilts. Squeeze in lemon juice to taste and serve warm.
