Italian Wedding Soup

ITALIAN WEDDING SOUP
Carrabbas Copycat Recipe

Soup:
5 1/2 cups chicken stock
10 ounces spinach
4 celery stalks, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
3 medium carrots, chopped
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon butter

Meatballs:
1 lb ground turkey
1 teaspoons pepper
1/2 cup Italian bread crumbs
2 eggs
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese

Saute Vegetables: Chop celery, onion, carrots. In a large sauce pan, saute vegetables with one tablespoon garlic, minced and one tablespoon butter.

Soup: When vegetables are complete add 5 1/2 cups of chicken stock. Boil soup for about 15 minutes then reduce to simmer.

Meatballs:  Now you have to make the meat balls for the soup. In a medium bowl mix together one pound ground turkey and two Eggs. (You can use ground beef, but I do prefer to use ground turkey. It tastes the same and is healthier.)

Once egg is mixed in completely, add half cup Italian bread crumbs, half cup parmesan cheese, and 1 tablespoon pepper. Mix completely and then shape mixture into tiny meatballs.
Once meatballs are shaped. In a medium frying pan, saute until outside of meatballs are cooked. Leave inside slightly uncooked. Then add to soup. Boil soup for about 15 minutes, and then simmer for an hour. Serve with Italian bread.
