Tips

add or omit whatever veggies you like, this always comes out tasty


Directions

To make your meatballs:
Mix the ground turkey with the 2 raw eggs. season liberally with salt and whatever you like. I use a lot of minced onion and garlic and Italian seasonings in mine. the mixture will be very loose. scoop ping pong ball sized amounts of mixture, loosely form into balls and brown meatballs in a pan, till cooked through.

To make your soup:
Chop up all the fresh vegetables and season generously with salt and whatever you like. I used a lot of crushed coriander, paprika, garlic, onion, bay leaves, and basil. Sautee until desired tenderness is reached. Add canned veggies and chicken stock, heat through and stir in meatballs. Garnish with sour cream if desired! This came out pretty tasty and it's a guilt free way to have a full satisfied tummy. Omit the meatballs and substitute veggie broth for an awesome vegetarian version.
