TURKEY MEATBALLS AND VEGETABLE SOUP

Turkey Meatballs and Vegetable Soup image

Our home economists combined ready-made turkey meatballs with fresh and frozen vegetables to come up with this nicely seasoned soup. Small families can enjoy half now and freeze the rest for later. But bigger families may want to double the recipe, so there's plenty leftover for a second meal. Sprinkle servings with Parmesan cheese just before serving.
