DIRECTIONS
Meatball Directions

  1. Remove meatballs from the package and break up in mixing bowl with a spoon or your hands. Add all other ingredients and blend until fully incorporated.
  2. Use hands to make meatballs about 2 inches in diameter. Pack together tightly so they will hold their shape. If the mixture is too wet, add additional panko breadcrumbs. Place meatballs on a plate in the fridge until ready to use.

Soup Directions

  1. Pour about ¼ cup of the vegetable stock into a soup pan and heat to medium-high.
  2. Add all remaining ingredients except cilantro and bring to a boil.
  3. When the soup is boiling drop the chilled meatballs into the soup one at a time. Reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
  4. Add chopped cilantro and stir until incorporated throughout the soup.
  5. Serve in bowls with additional chopped cilantro.
