Directions

  1. Combine 1 cup chicken broth and tomato in a blender, blend until smooth.

Recipe Note

My mother-in-law, who is from Mexico, makes this and it's my husband's favorite. It's the Spanish version of meatballs, although it's cooked in a delicious broth instead of tomato sauce. Very filling... enjoy!
