Yield 7 1 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 26

For the Meatballs:
• 20 oz (1.3 lb) ground turkey breast 93% lean
• 1/4 cup seasoned whole wheat breadcrumbs*
• 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
• 1/4 cup parsley, finely chopped
• 1 large egg
• 1/4 cup onion, minced
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1/4 tsp salt
For the Soup:
• 32 oz container reduced sodium chicken broth
• 2 tsp olive oil
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 1 cup diced carrots
• 1/2 cup diced celery
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 (14.5 oz) cans petite diced tomatoes
• Parmesan cheese rind (optional)
• 1 fresh rosemary sprig
• 2 bay leaves
• 2 tbsp chopped fresh basil
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley
• 1/2 tsp kosher salt and fresh black pepper
• 8 oz zucchini, diced
• 2 cups chopped fresh spinach
• extra parmesan cheese for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. In a large bowl, combine ground turkey, breadcrumbs, egg, parsley, onion, garlic, salt and cheese. Using your (clean) hands, gently mix all the ingredients well until everything is combined. Form small meatballs, about 1 tbsp each, you'll get about 42. Bake in the oven about 12 minutes. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the carrots, celery, onion, garlic and saute until tender and fragrant, about 15 minutes. Add the broth, tomatoes, parmesan cheese rind, salt and pepper. Add the rosemary, basil and parsley, cover and cook on low 40 minutes. Remove the bay leaves, rosemary sprig, parmesan rind and drop the meatballs in along with the zucchini and spinach, cover and simmer until the zucchini is tender and meatballs are cooked through, about 8 to 10 minutes, season to taste with salt and black pepper if needed. Serve with extra grated cheese on the side if desired.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients: Fresh vegetables, savory broth, and tender meatballs are essential for a flavorful soup.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot: Adding too many vegetables or meatballs at once can prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Simmer, don't boil: A gentle simmer allows the flavors to meld and develop without overcooking the vegetables.
  • Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to your liking. You can also adjust the amount of broth to achieve your desired consistency.
  • Serve with a variety of toppings: Grated Parmesan cheese, crusty bread, or a dollop of sour cream are all great additions to meatball vegetable soup.

Conclusion:

Meatball vegetable soup is a hearty, comforting meal that's perfect for a cold day. With its simple ingredients and easy-to-follow steps, this soup is a great choice for busy weeknights or lazy weekends. So next time you're looking for a satisfying and nutritious meal, give this classic soup a try. You won't be disappointed!
