Growing up, I remember my dad loving it when my mom made Albondigas soup. I thought it was some special, exotic soup… nope, it was meatball soup! Today, I share this family recipe in my own house. It brings back memories for me and is a way to pass on a family tradition to my own kids. The meatballs have a unique flavor because they are made with rice instead of breadcrumbs. The result is a light soup that's perfect on summer days. Here's how to make Albondigas soup:
Our version of Albondigas Soup includes Knorr Caldo de Res Bouillon (Beef flavor Bouillon) to give the soup extra flavor and make preparation simpler.
Who has time to make homemade beef broth from scratch? I love that with Knorr Caldo de Res Bouillon (Beef flavor Bouillon) I get the same flavor and quality as if the broth was homemade. And that's important in this soup. It's all about the beef flavor.
This summer, come together around the table with a delicious soup that will warm your heart and satisfy your hunger. If you grow a backyard garden, incorporate seasonal vegetables into the soup. We added white radishes from my garden, that I picked the same afternoon that we made the soup. Dice onion and fresh cilantro to top the soup. Serve with a baguette or corn tortillas. Sometimes, I like to add a little squeeze of lime or a few slices of avocado on top!

Looks great. Can’t wait for cold weather to try this out.

My family loves good ole Chicken Noodle Soup, but this looks really good! I pinned it so I could find it when I’m stumped for something different for dinner.

looks great, thanks for sharing on craft schooling Sunday! I make Moroccan style meatballs quite often, now you’ve got me thinking that maybe I can come up with a soup to use them in, as I could reduce some of the spices and make it similar to yours, without the oregano though, as husband isn’t fond of it, sigh. all the best!
You had me at Yukon Gold potatoes. They are the best!
