Hearty Meatball Tortellini Soup: A Delicious Twist!

Step 1

Combine a medley of beef, pork, finely chopped onion, and fresh parsley in a mixing bowl. Season the mixture generously with salt and a hint of freshly ground black pepper. Shape the seasoned meat into petite, flavorful meatballs.

Step 2

Begin by bringing a pot of rich beef broth to a bubbling boil. Carefully pour in a luscious tomato sauce, infusing the broth with robust flavors. Gently drop the meatballs into the simmering concoction. Lower the heat to a gentle medium and allow the soup to simmer, ensuring to skim off any excess oil that may rise to the surface, for approximately 60 minutes. Introduce an array of diced potatoes, fragrant onions, vibrant kale leaves, crisp green beans, sweet carrots, minced garlic, aromatic basil, and a sprinkle of zesty Italian seasoning. Let the ingredients meld together as they simmer until the vegetables reach a delectable tenderness, which may take anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour.

Step 3

Toss in some frozen tortellini to the pot and continue cooking until they are warmed through, which should only take about 10 minutes. Serve up this hearty and comforting soup for a satisfying meal that is bursting with flavors and textures.
