Food for the soul is not enough! – Magic Meatball Soup!
As I mentioned yesterday in my post ” Food for the soul or food for the mouth“, I prefer food for the soul, but that unfortunately is not enough, so here is a nice, warm “feel good” recipe for a meatball soup that I call “magic”!
Why magic? Because according to my kids, once you eat it, you feel better, no matter if you were sick or sad..:-)
Does it really work? Sure it does! It just need the right ingredients- a pinch of belief , a tablespoon of child emotion and cup of love!
Enjoy!
1 cup noodles
1. Mix the ground meat with the spices and make large as a plum meatballs. Set them aside.
* Note: if you regularly wet your hands with water the meat won’t stick to them, so it would be easier to make the meatballs.
2. In a large cooking pan ( mine is 12 qt, but you can use 6 qt too) bring to a boil 5 qt of water.When the water is boiling add the meatballs one at a time. Cook for 15 minutes on medium.
3. When the meatballs are almost done, add the carrots, celery, green and red pepper and the tomatoes. Cook for 10 more minutes then add the mushrooms and noodles and cook for 10 more minutes.
4. Add the sliced daikon and the green onions and cook for 5 more minutes, then add the spinach and turn the stove off.
6. Garnish with lemon and cut spring onions, serve hot.
