(My family loves this soup, and if you know Johnny Mac., he is pretty tough to impress!)
Meatballs: 1½ lbs. Sweet Italian Sausage (No casing. Must be sweet Italian..not mild) Mix well with: 1 egg, Garlic powder, Just a few bread crumbs ¾ cup of FRESH parmesan cheese Make into tiny balls and brown in olive oil. Remove when just brown and drain.
Soup: 48 oz. box of Chicken Stock (or 2 small boxes. You can use any stock but the chicken/vegetable combination is really good) 48 oz box of Vegetable Stock 3 to 5 smashed garlic cloves Simmer together for about 30 minutes (then remove the garlic cloves) Add meatballs after about 15 minutes Add a little bit of shaved fresh carrot for color.
After 30 minutes add 1 package of three cheese tortellini. (I use the 9oz pkg of fresh in the dairy and egg section.) Simmer about 10 more minutes.
I serve this with fresh shredded parmesan cheese. ENJOY! |
