- 1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil

- 1 stalk, medium (7-1/2" - 8" long) Celery
- 1/2 cup, chopped Carrots
- 4 cup Chicken Broth, Bouillon or Consomme
- 1/4 cup Spaghetti/Marinara Pasta Sauce

- 8 oz Italian Sausage, sweet
- 4 ounce Ground Beef (80% Lean / 20% Fat)
- 1 large Egg (Whole)
DIRECTIONS
In Phase 1 and 2 leave the carrot out of this recipe; decrease the NC by about .7g per serving.- Heat olive oil In a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the white onion, diced celery and carrots and cook until they begin to soften, about 5 minutes.
- Add the broth, marinara sauce and Italian seasoning. Simmer for 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, mix the sausage, ground beef and egg together in a mixing bowl. Using a tablespoon, form meat mixture into balls and drop into the simmering soup. Alternatively, bake the meatballs in a 350°F oven on a jelly roll pan until brown on the outside before adding to the soup.
- Cook for an additional 20 minutes until the meatballs are cooked through.
- Season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper and serve immediately.
