Albondigas Soup

This is one of our favorite meals. It's a soup and also a main course. We eat it with Quesadillas. I found several sites on the internet and picked and choose the ingredients to make my own recipe.

Notes

We found turkey meatballs at Costco. I use a whole package each time I make this. I brown the meatballs well as I am cooking the soup. Then add everything together. We like our soup spicy so taste as you are preparing to have the flavor that works best for you.
I made the turkey meatballs yesterday and made them much spicer than my recipe states. Using the same ingredients.
