Ablondigas Soup otherwise known as Mexican Rice Meatball Soup. This is soo good I can not begin to tell you. The chef of a well known mexican restaurant gave this recipe to my dad. I have since changed quite a few things to make it mine and more to my liking. It is awesome on a very cold day or anytime and can be served with flour tortillas.

How To Make ablondigas soup

    MEATBALLS FOR SOUP: Ingredients: 1 lb. ground beef 1/2 t. pepper 1 lb. ground pork bread crumbs 1/2 c. raw rice 1 egg, slightly beaten 1 1/2 t. salt DIRECTIONS: Put the ingredients for the meatballs together in a large bowl and mix with hands till well blended. Shape into little balls, not too small, but not too large, give or take about the size of a golf ball or a hair smaller. Drop meatballs into your now boiling broth, carefully. Turn to a low heat when all meatballs are added and cover tightly. Cook for 30 to 45 minutes. Your soup is now ready to serve. Can be served with crackers, but best with flour tortillas.
