CHICKEN AND BEEF MEATBALL SOUP

Steps:

• Follow instructions on the box for instant soup. Too much or too little water and the soup is either too weak or too salty.
• Add chicken stock mix to boiling water.
• Roll ground beef into little meat balls approximately the size of a quarter.
• Bring chicken stock mix to a boil, add the meat balls, add the vermicelli, nutmeg and parsley. Break vermicelli noodles into 1/2 inch pieces. adding too much vermicelli makes the soup too thick.
• Cook until all meatballs surface, approximately 15 minutes.
• Add a dash of Magi to taste, otherwise use salt and pepper. (a few dashes of dark Japanese soy sauce can be substituted, but it just doesn't taste the same, just too salty).
• This soup can be eaten right after it is made, but is much better the following day after it is refrigerated and reheated. Place in refrigerator.
• After cooling, don't skim fat.
• Place back on burner and reheat.
• Good for three or four days and is delicious. To serve as a meal, add a nice salad and some crusty bread and butter. Enjoy!

FAMOUS HOMEMADE CHICKEN SOUP WITH MEATBALLS - ITALIAN STYLE

Steps:

• Rinse chicken and clean vegetables.
• Cut the tops off the carrots and remove onion skin but keep whole.
• Place chicken, vegetables, bullion, tomato sauce and enough water to cover in a large stock pot, covered, over high heat until it boils.

• In a medium bowl, add the chicken, feta, 1/4 cup oats, the grated onion, most of the dill (reserve about 2 tablespoons for garnish), the cumin, 1/2 teaspoon turmeric and 1 teaspoon salt. Gently combine without squeezing too hard or overworking the meat. Lightly wet your palms and shape the meat into small balls, a little smaller than the size of a golf ball, about 1 1/2 inches. (You will have approximately 25 balls.)
• Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven or wide pot over medium until shimmering. Add the diced onion, season with salt, and cook until it begins to soften, about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
