    This sounds very good! I like the idea of the little balls of morrow mixed with bread crumbs.

    I learned to make our veggie beef soup from my mom using leftover potroast. It was always so thick with veggies, you could use a fork "just like that canned soup company claimed". My kind of soup...I think the orzo is great, we used rice...and the madeira is a pleasant flavor addition that I must try.
