Meatball Soup

I have difficulty digesting dairy (Lactate pills do not help me.) and gluten. But I can usually figure out a way to convert most recipes to dairy and gluten free. I’m just starting on this project. So please be patient. As I try out my recipes, I will let you know how it goes.

1 ½ pound lean ground beef, chicken, or turkey

1 egg, lightly whisked

½ cup freshly grated parmesan, plus more for serving (use vegan cheese)

⅓ cup unseasoned bread crumbs (GF breadcrumbs, I make homemade, see below)

1 tablespoon dried oregano, divided

1 teaspoon sweet paprika, divided

1 cup chopped parsley leaves, divided

3 to 5 garlic cloves, minced (divided)

Extra virgin olive oil

Kosher salt

Black pepper

1 small onion, chopped

2 carrots, chopped

2 celery stalks, chopped

1 small green bell pepper, chopped

5 to 6 cups (40 to 48 ounces) beef, chicken or vegetable broth

1 (28-ounce) can peeled tomatoes with juices

¾ cup small pasta like ditalini or small shells uncooked (GF pasta, Amazon & Target carry it)

Red pepper flakes for serving (optional)
