Recipe Introduction


This soup is basically homemade chicken soup with mini meatballs served as an appetizer at Italian weddings. Wedding in the "old days" were not elaborate $10-50k Hollywood productions. They were simple, fun, and quite frankly, there was not a lot of money. If you can recall The Godfather motion picture, they had money, and you see that was in their backyard. Back then, it was about family, friends, and a humble but joyus celebration.




List of Ingredients




1 lb Meatballs
2 14 Ounce Cans of Chicken Stock
25 Ounces of Cold Water
2 Carrots sliced in thin rounds
3 Celery Stalks, some with leaves, chopped
5 Ounces of Pasta (bowtie, rings, spaghetti broken into quarters, your choice)
Salt & Pepper to taste


Recipe



Simply add the carrots and celery to some olive oil and sautee with salt and pepper. Add the chicken stock and water and bring to a boil. When your meatballs are done frying, set on a paper towel to drain excess oil and add to the soup along with your pasta, reduce to a simmer for at least 30-45 minutes.
