Easy Lemon Chickpea Orzo Soup (vegan)

0 In a large pot, heat oil on medium high heat. Add the onion, garlic, celery, and carrots. Sauté until onions are translucent and veggies begin to soften, about 4-5 minutes.
1 Add the Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Sauté for 1 minute. Add the orzo and sauté for another 1 minute to toast it a little bit.
2 Add the chickpeas and broth. Stir and deglaze the bottom of the pot. Bring to a boil and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Turn heat off and add the lemon juice. Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Add more lemon if you want it more lemony. Serve hot with crusty bread! Enjoy!
