"Here's a Greek twist on an old favorite: a hearty Italian
mini-meatball-and-pasta soup."-Rach
Ingredients:

* Two 32-ounce containers (8 cups) chicken broth
* 3/4 pound ground lamb or beef
* 2/3 cup finely chopped flat-leaf parsley (a couple of generous
handfuls)
* 1/3 cup breadcrumbs (a generous handful)
* 1/4 cup feta cheese, chopped or crumbled
* 1 large egg
* 2 cloves garlic, grated or finely chopped
* 2 sprigs oregano, finely chopped
* Salt and pepper
* 1 cup orzo pasta
* Grated peel and juice of 1 lemon
* 1/3 cup chopped mint leaves (a generous handful)

Directions:

1.

In a deep skillet or Dutch oven, bring the chicken broth to a
boil. Lower the heat and bring to a simmer.
2.

Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the lamb, half of the
parsley, the breadcrumbs, feta, egg, garlic and oregano; season with
salt and pepper. Form into 1-inch balls. Add to the simmering broth
along with the orzo and cook for 8 minutes. Stir in the lemon peel,
lemon juice, remaining parsley and the mint.
