Tzafrir's Israeli Wedding Soup (Gyro Soup) image

I love Gyro's, so why not make it into a soup? I want to thank 'Parsley' for the posting of the lamb meatball recipe (recipe # 185382) that is what made my soup possible! When I received the revelation to make this recipe and it actually tasted good, I decided to call it Israeli wedding soup, simply because of the lamb meatballs!
