VEGETARIAN AVGOLEMONO SOUP

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add carrots, celery, and onion; cook until veggies soften and flavors have mingled, about 3 minutes.
• Add water and bring to a boil. Cook for at least 1 hour, or longer for a more flavorful broth.
• Use a slotted spoon to transfer vegetable chunks to a food processor. Blend until smooth and return to the pot.
• Add orzo and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whip eggs in a bowl. Add lemon juice. Add a few tablespoons of hot broth to the lemon-egg mixture, whisking constantly to avoid curdling the eggs. Continue until lemon-egg mixture is hot, then add to the broth.
• Reduce heat and cook, without boiling, until soup thickens a bit, about 3 minutes. Allow soup to cool slightly before serving; it will become even thicker. Season with salt and pepper.
