So glad I found this recipe because we do love soups any time of year. The meatballs are so much tastier than most and I think that is what makes it so special. Thanks for submitting
GREAT meatballs! Put them in the oven at 350 for about 15-20 minutes instead of frying them. Also used turkey instead of beef.
Very Good! I followed the recipe exactly and only added fresh thyme. Served it with whole grain sourdough bread and everybody loved it.
very good....only thing i did differently was I added zucchini....thanks for sharing YUMMY!
Very good soup. I omitted the tomato paste and store canned tomatoes using 1 pint of home canned tomatoes. Used hot Italian sausage (Roma). Initially I was doubling the recipe but when I tired of making the meatballs I just mixed the sauteed carrots celery and onions with the remaining meatball mixture formed it into a loaf and we had a wonderful meatloaf supper!!
I found this to be an excellent recipe but made a few adjustment's. I used hot Italian sausage in the meatball mix and added cabbage in place of the pasta to give it a more vegetable direction and not be as heavy as it would with pasta. The cabbage really add's to the homemade beef stock.
Great soup! I made a few changes b/c of my personal preferences: all beef in the meatballs 2 cans beef broth plus 1 1/2 cans water and 1 beef bouillon cube boiled my pasta in the soup left out additional soup and celery. Will def make this again!
very good i did do some adjustments though we used rotel tomatoes and i put a tsp of oregano and 1 of italian seasoning as well...one other thing i did was i cooked the meatballs by boiling them i do not like fried meatballs boiled ones seem mopre temder to me then tough when fried
husband gives it 5 stars. I crushed ceasar croutons for bread crumbs. I also baked the meatballs at 350 for 30 minutes before putting in red sauce. If you bake rotate balls 15 minutes. I did not make the soup.
I made the recipe exactly as written and honestly... it needed some seasoning. I adjusted salt and pepper, then added a bunch of grated parmesan cheese and that helped. I will make it again but next time will use more salt, more pepper, and be generous with the grated parmesan.
