For an even richer flavor, consider using homemade chicken broth. To prevent the meatballs from becoming tough, avoid overmixing the meat mixture. Feel free to add other vegetables such as zucchini or escarole. If you prefer a clearer broth, you can brown the meatballs in a skillet before adding them to the soup. This soup freezes well. Allow it to cool completely before transferring it to freezer-safe containers.
