Ingredients
For the mirepoix:
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- ¼ cup onion diced
- ¼ cup carrots diced
- ½ cup celery hearts and leaves diced
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley minced
- ½ teaspoon fresh rosemary minced
For the soup:
- 12 cups gluten-free chicken stock
- 5 carrots peeled and sliced
- 2 celery stalks sliced
- 1 pound parsnips peeled and sliced
- 1 large leek cleaned and sliced
For the meatballs:
- 1½ pounds ground chicken or turkey
- 1 cup frozen spinach thawed and squeezed to remove extra water
- 2 tablespoons fresh onion grated
- 1 teaspoon garlic finely minced
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup almond flour
- ⅛ cup Parmesan cheese optional
- ½ teaspoon kosher or fine sea salt
- Few turns of cracked black pepper
Instructions
- Make the mirepoix by melting the butter in a large pot and adding the onions, carrots, and celery. Add the garlic and herbs and stir to combine. Cook until translucent.
- Add the stock and remaining soup ingredients to the pot and turn on medium-high heat, cooking on a low boil for 15-20 minutes.
- While the soup is cooking, make the meatballs. In a large bowl, add all ingredients in order listed, and mix well. Form the balls and drop slowly with a slotted spoon into the soup. If the meat mixture is too sticky to form balls, refrigerate for 30-60 minutes while your soup simmers on low. Once the meatballs have been added, simmer an additional 30-45 minutes.
