Curried Chickpeas with Spinach
Veggie Orzo Soup
By :I Love My Instant Pot Gluten Free Diet by Michelle Fagone |

Although garnishing this dish with your basic Parmesan cheese will do the trick, try buying a brick of Parmesan or Parmigiano-Reggiano in the fancy section of your supermarket. Use a thicker grate (instead of the fine side) to top this soup. The cheese will hold up longer as you dive into this beautiful dish. And don’t forget to buy the gluten-free orzo!

Orzo, also known as risoni, is simply a rice-shaped pasta. If you can’t find orzo in the store or online, simply replace it with a short-grain white rice.
