Ingredients

  • 8 ounces ground beef chuck
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for garnish
  • 1/4 cup freshly chopped parsley
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 1 clove garlic, grated
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 carrots, peeled & diced
  • 2 stalks of celery, diced
  • 6 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • One 9 -ounce package of refrigerated cheese tortellini
  • 4 cups baby spinach leaves
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper

Instructions

  1. Combine the beef, parmesan, 2 tablespoons parsley, egg, garlic, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Mix until just combined. Form into 1-inch meatballs.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a soup pot over medium-high heat. Add the meatballs and cook, turning often until golden, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the meatballs to a plate. Add the carrots and celery to the pot. Sauté until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Add the broth and bring to a boil. Return the meatballs to the pot along with the remaining 2 tablespoons parsley and season with salt and pepper to taste. Simmer until the meatballs are just cooked through, about 2 minutes.
  3. Add the tortellini and cook until they float to the top, about 4 minutes. Add the spinach and cook until wilted about 1 minute. Ladle the soup into bowls, top with additional Parmesan cheese and serve.
