Rainy Day Soup

Well, I was supposed to go to the USC Game BUT it's raining cats and dogs and I had no desire to sit out in the rain and watch the game so I ate the cost of the tickets and stayed home and watched the game on TV. At least USC won but it was a nail bitter all throughout the 1st half. Hopefully they'll get a bowl game and I can go!

Since it was raining, today was a soup day. I decided on meatball soup and after shopping at Costco and Ralphs, it was time to cook!

First I put the meatballs together with hamburger, rice, seasoned salt, oregano, and garlic powder. Then I chopped onions, celery, carrots, zucchini, corn on the corb in to small quarters, cilantro and cabbage. I sautéed the onions, celery, carrots, in some olive oil and minced garlic. Once softened, I added a can of diced tomatoes, and 3 boxes of veggie broth. I brought to a boil, then a simmer and added the meatballs, zucc, and corn. Cooked for about 20 mins until everything was soft and then added cilantro and cabbage.

Perfect! When it's raining what's your go to soup?
