Here is how you make Dollbabe56's (RR) Italian Wedding Soup:

Serves 4 (2 cup servings)Chop onion, carrots, and celery. In large stock pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. (I also spray bottom and sides with non-stick spray so it is easier to clean later) Add the veggies and bay leaves and cover for 5 - 6 minutes, stir occasionally. While veggies cook, mix ground beef, egg, bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, nutmeg (grate my own, so I'm not too sure of the measurement. Use a pinch of powder), salt and pepper.When veggies are finished cooking, add broth and water. Bring to boil. Roll "bite sized" meatballs with the meat mixture. Add to stock pot. Add the pasta and cook over medium for 8 minutes. Test to be sure meatballs are cooked through and the pasta is done to your taste.
