We tried this recipe: https://www.thekitchn.com/easy-pasta-and-beans-257210 This recipe calls for chicken broth, but if you use vegetable broth, it easily could be vegetarian.
Our modifications: first, we halved the recipe. Second, based on our pantry we used 1/2 tsp dried basil instead of fresh, and we added it just before simmering the orzo in sauce. We also added 1/4 frozen chopped spinach for color and nutrition. We found this a bit one note, we added 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper, 1/4 tsp sugar, and 1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar for brightness.
