Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup chopped yellow onions
1/2 cup chopped carrots
1/4 cup chopped celery
3 garlic cloves, chopped
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
3 cups vegetable broth
1 15.5 ounces can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
1 14.5 ounces can diced tomatoes, drained
1 1/2 cups chopped zucchini
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
3 cups chopped collard greens (stems removed)
2 cups cooked orzo
1/2 cup shredded fresh Parmesan cheese


Directions:
Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion, carrot, celery, garlic, salt, rosemary, black pepper and crushed red pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are just tender, 8 to 10 minutes.

Stir in the broth, 2 cups water, the cannellini beans, tomatoes, zucchini and vinegar. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; reduce the heat to medium low and simmer until the zucchini is just tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in the collard greens and simmer until the greens are tender, about 2 minutes. Stir in the orzo. Season with salt. Top with the shredded parmesan.
