Never thought to do soup like this. Really a fun recipe to make. The smell of the oregano is superb!

Changed this up a bit to make it more "authentic" (according to my 1/8th spanish husband)...just like his grandmaw makes, now. Omitted the pork sausage, used Masa instead of corn meal, chicken broth instead of beef, picante sauce for the salsa and mixed the rice (uncooked) into the meatballs before dropping into our soup. Really liked this one alot....will def. make again! Thank you for the post!

Although the instructions are a great starting place, the soup needed: carrots, onion & celery. Also try rolling the meatballs in ground fresh spearmint (yerba buena) before the flour. For spicy (and traditional) eat with "jalapeños en vinagre" and rolled up tortillas.

This recipe is okay, but it is much better if you add carrots, squash and sliced onions. If you make these changes it makes a more authentic soup

This recipe sounded great but had no flavor at all. I had to add beef bouillion, thyme, a can of cream of chicken soup and some salt to make it edible. I'll never make it again.

Recipe was perfect. I removed the potatoes, and added 4 carrots, 3 small squaches and chopped up 1 small onion for perfection. Family loved it.

I liked the meatballs.The rest though I thought was bland. I used half beef broth and water initally. I would add the potatoes with about 30 min. left to go also added fresh parsley, carrots and some more broth with the potatoes. Next time I would add onion and garlic.

The broth was too bland and the meatballs were too spicy. I'd decrease the oregano by at least half. If I made this again, I think I'd probably NOT make meatballs and just throw all the ingredients in the pot.
