Ingredients
- Turkey Meatball Ingredients
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 heaping tbsp grated white onion
- 1 tbsp finely minced celery
- 1 tsp minced garlic
- Soup Ingredients
- 1 tbsp each extra virgin olive oil and butter
- 1 cup finely diced onion
- 1/2 cup finely diced celery
- 1/2 cup diced carrots
- 6 cups chicken stock
- 4 cups chopped mixed greens like Swiss chard, spinach, and kale
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
Preparation
Step 1
Mix all of the meatball ingredients together and form into cocktail sized balls. Set aside.
Step 2
Saute the celery, carrots, and onion in the butter and olive oil over medium high heat in a large soup pot.
Step 3
When the vegetables just begin to turn soft, add the meatballs a few at a time and let them saute a little to get well coated in the olive oil and butter.
Step 4
Add the chicken stock and bring to the boil. Once boiling, cover, turn to medium low, and continue to simmer for 30 minutes.
Step 5
After the soup has simmered 30 minutes, add the greens, stir well until wilted, and then add the black pepper and lemon juice. Serve in large soup bowls.
