About Caldo de albondigas

Caldo de Albóndigas, a traditional Mexican soup, features meatballs typically made from a mixture of ground beef, pork, or turkey blended with rice and seasonings. The flavorful broth is simmered with an array of fresh vegetables such as carrots, zucchini, potatoes, and sometimes chayote, imparting richness and depth. Originally rooted in Mexican home cooking, this hearty dish is often enjoyed as a comforting meal. Nutritionally, it provides protein from the meatballs and an assortment of vitamins and fiber from the vegetables, making it a well-rounded option. However, depending on preparation, it can be higher in sodium or saturated fats, especially if made with fattier ground meats or heavily salted broth. To retain its healthful benefits, lean meats and low-sodium broth can be used, showcasing the dish's wholesome qualities while maintaining its authentic taste.
