Ingredients

• 1/2 lb Beef, Ground
• 1/2 lb Sausage, Ground
• 2 tsp Parsley, Fresh
• 1/4 c Cheese, Parmesan
• 1/3 tsp Salt
• 1/8 tsp Pepper, Black

• 1/3 tsp Oregano
• Pepper, Black to taste
• 2 tsp Salt
• 12 cups Chicken, Broth
• 8-10 oz Spinach, Fresh
• 1 box acini de pepe

Instructions

1. Mix together ground beef, sausage, parsley, parmesan cheese, 1 clove garlic, basil and milk to form meatballs. Salt and pepper as needed. Cook lightly in a skillet, the goal is to sear the outside but not completely cook the inside.
2. Cook the anci de pepe in salted water, drain and set aside for later.
3. Mix together remaining ingredients except for spinach in a pot. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and cook slowly. Half-way through cooking add the meatballs. Add spinach near the end of cooking. Once spinach has cooked down a little bit remove from heat.
4. Serve soup along with anci de pepe. Do not store together as the anci de pepe will gel the soup.
