Italian Spinach Soup (aka Italian Wedding Soup)

Meatballs: 1 Egg

1⁄2 Cup Parmesan Cheese 1 Small Onion

1 Teaspoon Sea Salt

1⁄2 Teaspoon Pepper

1 Teaspoon Garlic Powder 2 Pounds Ground Turkey

2 Tablespoons Coconut Oil

Soup:

1 Quart Organic Chicken Broth 1 Cup Spinach, Chopped

1 Teaspoon Onion Powder

1 Tablespoon Chopped Parsley 1 Teaspoon Sea Salt

1⁄2 Teaspoon Pepper

1⁄2 Teaspoon Garlic Powder

Meatballs: In a bowl, combine all meatball ingredients. Shape into 1 inch balls. Fry in coconut oil until done. Set aside. Mix other ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a boil. When spinach is wilted, add the meatballs back in and serve.

TIP: If you want to use this soup over a few days, leave the spinach out until you are ready to reheat it then add it into the broth as it heats.

TIP: The meatballs do not contain breadcrumbs so they are a little more fragile. Fry them with care or bake in the oven.
