Italian Wedding Soup

I don't know why I never realized how easy this is to make, but it really is a super easy meal.  Throw together some meatballs first- either look up a recipe online or do what I do and mix a package of ground turkey, an egg, a small handful of breadcrumbs, and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese and maybe some dried basil.  Roll them into balls and bake them.

While those are in the oven (350 till cooked through?) boil some chicken broth and chop up a few carrots and throw them in there, along with a handful or two of israeli couscous or other small pasta.

When everything is cooked through, put a handful of fresh spinach in each bowl and ladle the broth on top to wilt it.  Add as many meatballs as you want. If you're going to freeze the soup, freeze the broth and meatballs separately so they're easier to defrost.

Start to finish, the whole recipe takes a half hour or less and it super tasty.  Enjoy!
