ITALIAN WEDDING SOUP WITH TURKEY MEATBALLS
Classic Italian wedding soup is beloved for its simplicity and satisfaction. This turkey version is lean, while meatballs stay moist by simmering in broth. Start with the most flavorful broth you can get your hands on (homemade is ideal, but store-bought works well too), then pack the meatballs with flavor (garlic and parsley) and staying power (egg, panko and cheese, to gently bind them together). Traditionalists may be tempted to add a small grated onion to the meat mixture, and sweat celery and carrots into the broth, but for a quick weeknight meal, you won't miss them here. If speed is your game, roll the mixture into 12 large meatballs-or opt for 20 smaller ones if serving kids (mini meatballs will cook through even faster). Either way, finish with a healthy dose of olive oil, lemon, cheese and dill, or any fresh Italian herb you may have on hand.

Steps:
- Combine the chicken broth and 2 tablespoons oil in a large pot and bring to a boil.
- Meanwhile, add the turkey, panko, parsley, egg, garlic, salt, pepper and 1/2 cup Parmesan to a large bowl. Mix with a fork or clean hands until combined. Gently roll the mixture into 12 medium (2-inch) or 20 small (1 1/2-inch) meatballs and transfer to a baking sheet lined with lightly oiled aluminum foil or a silicone baking mat.
- Heat the broiler to high and set an oven rack 6 to 8 inches from the heat. Broil the meatballs until brown on two sides, turning halfway through, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.
- Add the pasta to the boiling broth and cook over medium until al dente, then lower the heat to a low simmer.
- Add the meatballs to the broth and simmer on low until completely warmed through, 3 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat, and add the spinach and lemon zest, stirring well, to wilt. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Divide the soup among four bowls. Drizzle each with olive oil, sprinkle with more Parmesan and squeeze a bit of lemon over the top. Scatter the dill over the top, or stir in.

- Preheat a broiler to high. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil, spray lightly with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
- Place turkey in a large bowl with 1/2 ounce of Parmesan cheese, parsley, oregano, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Using your hands, mix together until evenly incorporated. Divide the mixture into 8 meatballs, using your hands to shape the balls. Place meatballs on the prepared baking sheet, then brush the tops evenly with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Broil until brown all over and cooked through, turning halfway through cooking (about 8 minutes total). Set aside.
- Warm 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and carrot, and cook, stirring occasionally until soft (2 - 3 minutes). Pour in the stock, bring to a boil, then stir in the orzo. Cook for 4 minutes, then add the kale and meatballs. Simmer (reduce heat if needed) until orzo is al dente and kale is tender (about 3 minutes more). Season to taste with additional salt and pepper.
- To serve, divide soup between 2 bowls, and top each serving with remaining Parmesan cheese and some chopped parsley. The soup is tasty as-is, but I also added a squeeze of fresh lemon and a spoonful of backyard pesto.
