Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 pound ground pork
1/2 pound ground beef
1/3 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon (or more) Worcestershire sauce
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 large red-skinned potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 large carrots, peeled, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 medium leeks (white and pale green parts only), chopped
1 large rutabaga, peeled, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
3 14 1/2-ounce cans beef broth
1 28-ounce can diced tomatoes

Steps:

  • Combine pork, beef, parsley, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper in large bowl; blend well. Form mixture into 1-inch balls. Heat oil in heavy large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Working in batches, add meatballs to pot and brown on all sides, about 4 minutes. Transfer to bowl after each batch.
  • Pour off all but 3 tablespoons drippings from pot. Add potatoes, carrots, leeks and rutabaga; sauté 5 minutes. Add broth and tomatoes with their juices. Return meatballs and any collected juices to pot. Bring to boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium; simmer uncovered until meatballs and vegetables are tender, about 45 minutes. Season with more Worcestershire sauce, if desired and salt and pepper.

This soup was very easy to make, but it didn't have a lot of flavor. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

The meatballs in this soup were a little dry. I think I overcooked them.

This soup was a little bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better.

I made this soup last night and it was delicious! I used ground turkey instead of beef and it turned out great. The soup was also very filling and satisfying.

This meatball and vegetable soup was a hit with my family! The meatballs were moist and flavorful, and the vegetables were cooked perfectly. The soup was also very easy to make, which is a bonus.
