Ingredients

Servings
  • ½ pound ground beef extra lean
  • 1 egg lightly beaten, large
  • 2 tablespoons bread crumbs dry
  • 1 tablespoon Parmesan Cheese grated
  • ½ teaspoon basil dried
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • 2-3 teaspoons olive oil divided
  • ½ cup carrot about 2 medium size carrots, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon garlic minced
  • 6 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 2 cups escarole thinly sliced
  • ½ cup orzo pasta uncooked
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • garlic salt with parsley flakes

Instructions

  1. Use a medium bowl and combine meat, egg, bread crumbs, cheese, basil, and onion powder. Scoop and shape the mixture into ¾ inch balls (makes about 32-36 small meatballs).
  2. Add a bit of olive oil to a large skillet. Once hot add the meatballs and cook until no longer pink.
  3. Add 1 teaspoon olive oil to a large saucepan and heat. Saute the carrots in the olive oil for about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant. Add both broths and bring to a boil. Stir in escarole and orzo pasta. Return to boil, then reduce heat to low-medium. Add meatballs.
  4. Cook at a slow boil for 10 minutes. Season with garlic salt and Italian seasoning to taste.
