About Italian wedding soup
Italian Wedding Soup is a comforting dish rooted in Italian-American cuisine, traditionally served at celebrations but enjoyed year-round. Its name refers to the harmonious "marriage" of flavors rather than weddings. This savory soup typically features small, tender meatballs made from beef, pork, or poultry, complemented by vegetables like carrots, celery, and spinach or escarole, and bolstered by pasta or orzo. A light chicken or beef broth ties the ingredients together, making for a hearty yet delicate meal. Nutritionally, Italian Wedding Soup offers protein from the meatballs and valuable vitamins and minerals from the leafy greens and vegetables. The broth is typically low in calories, though traditional versions may contain higher amounts of sodium and fat due to seasoned meatballs and cheese additions. Choosing lean meats, whole-grain pasta, or homemade broth can enhance its health profile while preserving its warm and satisfying essence.
