This is fantastic: Lemony chicken feta meatball soup with spinach

[Jodi]

This is SO good. I did what the first comment suggested and used orzo in the soup instead of the extra rolled oats (you just need to add extra broth). It says 1/3 package fresh dill (I hate when they do random non-standard measurements) but 1TBS chopped fresh dill was plenty for me. I even screwed up and added both the grated onion and the diced onion to the meatballs - I just made them smaller and cooked them longer to make sure the onion got cooked, and it worked out fine. We will definitely make this again.

Oh, and it says “handle meatballs carefully when you mix them” but I didn’t. I kept forgetting to add ingredients, so I mashed them big time multiple times with a potato masher and then scooped them out with a small ice cream scoop and tossed them in the pan, they are totally fine, moist and delicious. You do need a wide bottomed pan - I used our extra large Le Crueset pot.

Oh, and you need to cook it longer with the Orzo before you add the spinach. (No I have not fixed my edit function issue yet, lol)

and I used ground turkey.

Sounds like a real winner; will try making it later this week. It’s cold enough here to qualify as soup weather.

Thanks!

Yep. If it’s hot, gazpacho.

Or cold borscht. Which is what I had planned to make with the Beetology beets and the buttermilk I bought a few days ago. But now it's cold outside and cold borscht is off the menu for a while.

Do we still have a recipe board? I loved that thing.

@rustyfingers It’s in the Pinned Thread thread. I copied over all the recipes from groupee as best I could.

Pinned Threads:

The WTF cookbook thread:

Good reminder. Should probably add our newer recipes to the Cookbook thread so they don’t get lost.

@wtg you are brilliant
