But I'm here to tell you it is so easy to make and following this simple recipe people may likely think it was passed down from an Italian Grandmother. In the meantime, for the soup, heat the olive oil over medium-low heat in a large heavy-bottomed soup pot. In a medium bowl, combine the beef, egg, bread crumbs, cheese, basil and onion. The name of this soup refers to the marriage between two of the main ingredients: the green veggies (spinach or kale) and the meat ( chicken meatballs or sausage), and the beautiful flavors produced by this coupling. Wedding soup consists of green vegetables (usually endive and escarole or cabbage, lettuce, kale, and/or spinach) and meat (usually meatballs and/or sausage, the latter sometimes made of chicken and containing Italian parsley and parmesan cheese) in a clear chicken-based broth.
