This recipe really lends itself to batch making. Double or even triple the broth for an easy weeknight meal to freeze. I make my meatballs all at one time and freeze what I don’t need for sandwiches, pasta, and soup. It makes putting together the soup as easy as cooking noodles, and defrosting the meatballs and broth.
