Soup Fit for a Wedding

It is a new week and you are well on your way to making it the most organized ever. You decided last week not to prepare nor purchase any unhealthy meals and you are determined to stick to your guns.

You are decidedly nervous about what to prepare and even more concerned as to if the family will enjoy it. We have a recipe for the Role Model in you and it will surely cause high five activity throughout the house. How about a hearty and healthy bowl of Italian Wedding Soup that is sure to kick everyone into high gear? It is a far cry for the usual deep fried food the family is use to but it is one that is for the record books.

Enjoy this soup prepared by a Role Model with Love,

Ingredients:
2 Escarole – medium sized, chopped
1 lb Ground Beef
8 c Chicken Broth
4 Large Eggs
1 tsp Parsley
2 tbsp Basil
1 1/2 c Parmesan Cheese – grated
1 c Bread Crumbs

Directions:
Cook the escarole in a pot of boiling water until the escarole is soft, this helps remove some of the bitterness. Once the escarole is soft you can strain the water and also squeeze out any excess water that the escarole had absorbed.

In a mixing bowl, add the ground beef, one egg, parsley, basil, 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese and Italian bread crumbs. Once mixed, make tiny little bite-size balls of meat.

In a large pot, bring the chicken broth to a boil, drop in the bite-size meatballs. When they start to float, it means they are cooked.

Throw the escarole into the broth.

Finally, in mixing bowl, mix your last 3 eggs and remaining cup of cheese. Once mixed, pour it into the soup, and stir until the egg is cooked!!

I know it is a Winner! Enjoy!
