Koni's Meatball Soup

I got this from Koni. It's fast, easy & good. What more could you ask for. I use the Italian meatballs from Costco. If you make the meatballs from the recipe below I'd add some garlic and Italian seasoning. that would make them more like the Costco meatballs and give them a little more flavor. Also I added a little flour and water to the soup to thicken it a little at the end. Thanks for sharing Koni. I gave some to Natalie the other day when she wasn't feeling well. She wanted the recipe. Here it is.

It’s Meatball Soup

3 cups chicken broth
1 14 ½ oz. can diced tomatoes
¾ c. dry pasta
1 cup corn
½ t Italian seasoning
½ t pepper
1 lb. Prepared meatballs (prepared or use recipe below)

Add broth, tomatoes, vegetables, Italian seasoning, and pepper to large pot. Cover and bring to boil. Stir in pasta. Cover and simmer for 5 minutes. Add meatballs. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes until pasta is cooked through. Serve immediately. Makes 6 large portions.


Easy bake meatballs:
1 lb. Ground beef
1/3 c. bread crumbs
1 egg
½ t salt
¼ t pepper

Mix ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, salt, and pepper together. Form small balls with meat and place on a baking sheet. Bake 15 minutes at 350 degrees until browned and cooked through.

  4. I really liked this recipe. I especially liked that when you use the frozen meatballs you can be eating within half an hour.
