I love this soup. It is so easy and delicious. Sometimes I clean out the veggie drawer chopping whatever veggies I have on hand, (celery, carrots, onions, potatoes etc) and adding instead of the mixed veggies. Equally delicious. Sometimes I even put a can of petite diced tomatoes in when I am adding the fresh veggies along with a couple of pinches of dried thyme. Enjoy

How To Make meatball soup

Bring to boil then turn heat down and simmer for about an hour to and hour and 1/2.

    Turn heat back up and bring to a rolling boil, add noodles and cook until noodles are done. Sometimes I have to add a little more water cause I tend to like lots of noodles so before I add the noodles I check the fluid level and also I taste for correct seasonings because you want the noodles to absorb the yummy broth flavor.

    Serve with a little grated parmesan and a drizzle of olive oil (both are optional). I like to serve with bread but crackers will work fine too.
