Kale and meatball soup

a bowl of veggie soup with meatballsEarlier this week I discovered something new about my mother. My blogging for Slashfood has had an unintended, but positive, consequence in her life. It has opened her up to the world of recipes on the internet and now she's off and running. Several days ago, she punched in a short list of ingredients into Google, looking for a little inspiration. She found herself on Chez Megane and proceeded to make Megane's Vegetable Soup...With Meatballs.

She walked me through the changes she made to the recipe, which included doubling the amount of kale, punching up the broth with a shot of Bragg's Liquid Aminos and used ground turkey for the meatballs. Whether you make it just as it was written or adopt some of my mom's changes, it sounds like a tasty and easy soup, perfect for these chilly, dark evenings.
