Once the meatballs are almost done, place the broth to a large soup pot and bring to a boil.

I made this for lunch today with cheese quesadillas and we loved it. It is very hardy with lots of good flavor. Definitely on our make again list!

I am making it right now. It's hot out but I just had to make it. It sounded so good.

I added 2 cups of fresh baby Spinach and 2 cups of cooked long grain rice.  I really enjoy this recipe!  Thank you!

You had me, right off the bat, with "simple ingredients and minimal prep"! This is such delicious, hearty, soul-warming comfort food for chilly evenings! And thanks for the tip on freezing it without the pasta added - I love freezing individual portions of soup for quick little lunches, so that was super helpful!

I love how hearty and flavorful this sounds! Loaded soups like this are mainstays at my dinner table in the colder months.

I can't believe how easy this soup is to make! I can't wait to make it again, as it was a hit last night and I don't have any leftovers!

This looks so delicious and tasty! My family is going to love this recipe! I can't wait to give this a try!
