2 Celery ribs; chopped
1 md Onion; chopped

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high. Add

with another 2 cups water, and bring to a boil.
Once the mixture is boiling, add the chickpeas, tomatoes
and orzo. Reduce to a simmer and cover with a lid.
Simmer 10 minutes, or until the orzo is tender. Uncover
and stir in the greens, letting them simmer until soft,
about 2 minutes.
Add more water if you want the mixture to be more
souplike, and season with salt and pepper. Ladle into
bowls and top with chopped scallions (if desired),
grated cheese and a drizzle of olive oil.
