Ingredients:

Serving

4 cups water
4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
2 bay leaves
1 tsp snipped fresh oregano
1 1/2 tsp snipped fresh marjoram
1/4 tsp black pepper
2 two medium carrots , cut into thin bite-size strips (1cup)
1 cup sliced celery
3/4 cup dried orzo
3 cups torn fresh kale or spinach
finely shredded parmesan cheese (optional)

Directions:
