{NEW} Hearty Meatball + Veggie Soup ??
.
I make soup at least once a week, it’s quick, easy and my family loves it.
I typically double the batch so that we have future meals. Soup is ALWAYS better the next day!
makes about 6 servings
Ingredients:
1 Tbsp olive oil, or avocado oil
1 red onion, diced
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 yellow bell pepper, chopped
2 medium/large zucchinis, chopped
6 cups homemade or low sodium broth (vegetable broth, chicken, or beef broth)
1 (15 oz.) jar diced tomatoes with juices
a small handful of fresh parsley, chopped
for the meatballs:
1 lb. ground grass fed beef, ground turkey, or chicken
1 large egg
1/4 cup almond flour
1 tsp dried Italian seasoning
2 fresh garlic cloves, minced
sea salt and fresh ground black pepper, to your taste (about 1/4 teaspoon each)
Instructions:
In a large bowl, add all of your meatball ingredients and mix until well combined.
Get your hands in there if necessary!
Take a spoonful of mixture and with your wet hands roll it between your palms to form a meatball. Repeat with remaining mixture. Sometimes I’ll use a small cookie scoop to create nice, evenly measured meatballs about 1 inch in diameter.
Heat oil in a large stockpot over medium heat. Add in the meatballs and cook for 5-6 minutes, flipping on all sides to get them nicely browned.
Set meatballs aside on a plate.
Add diced onion, and bell peppers to that same pot and sauté just until your veggies begin to soften, about 4 minutes.
Return the meatballs to the pot, along with the broth and diced tomatoes.
Bring everything to a steady boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 15 -18 minutes, covered. Stir in chopped zucchini and continue to simmer for 3 minutes more.
Taste test, then season with sea salt and pepper to your taste and garnish with fresh chopped parsley.
Enjoy while hot!
Stays great in the fridge for 4 days or so…as with most soups tastes even BETTER the next day!
Consider doubling your batch so that you have meals all week! ?Rachel
