Tastes and smells like Won Ton soup without the wrapper.

ingredients
- 1⁄2 lb ground pork
- 1⁄2 lb ground beef
- 1 egg
- 1⁄2 medium onion, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon garlic
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄2 teaspoon pepper
- 1⁄4 cup chopped parsley
- 1 slice low-carb bread, crust removed
- 2 (900 ml) containers chicken broth (approx 2 quarts)
- 1 (284 ml) can beef broth (10 oz)
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄2 teaspoon pepper
- 1 medium bunch curly endive lettuce
- 2 eggs
- green onion
directions
- Combine in a bowl - ground pork, ground beef, 1 egg, finely chopped onion, garlic, salt, pepper, parsley and torn up bread less the crust. Roll approximate 1 inch meatballs and set aside.
- In a large soup pot - combine the chicken broth, beef broth, salt, pepper - when this mixture comes to a boil - carefully drop your meatballs into the boiling stock.
- The meatballs will be done when they float to the top - approximately 5 - 10 minutes.
- Cut off the stock of the endive and chop the leaves into smaller bits. Drop the endive into the meatball broth and stirr - let the endive wilt into the soup.
- In a small bowl whisk 2 eggs - gently pour the egg mixture into the simmering soup whisking the soup while pouring - this gives little stringy egg droppings.
- sprinkle the top of each bowl of soup with a few bits of cut up green onions for flavour and appearance.
- This recipe freezes very well if the amount seems overwhelming.
