    This is a great recipe and I will make again. I did use endive AND spinach as the spinach added color. If I did not add this everything would have been the same bland color. I also added pasta to mine to add more then just a broth and meatballs. loved the flavor. Thx Giada

    Was in the supermarket and googled a recipe for Italian Wedding Soup. Had almost all of the ingredients. Rainy cold night so I thought it would be perfect and it was! My daughter does not eat beef or pork, so I used 93/7 ground turkey. I would recommend it as an alternative. Used escarole as I find it's a nice "in-between" I feel that spinach is too delicate and kale too tough. Family LOVED it! Can't wait to make it again. Was quick and easy. Do yourself a favor and make it! Enjoy.

    I love this recipe. I make soup for my bagel shop/deli. My customers love this soup. It is very authentic. It always sells out. I serve a 12 oz. cup with a mini bagel. It will continue to be a favorite.

    Just delicious! I'm getting over the flu and it was JUST what I needed. Wholesome, soothing, light, delicious. There's a lot of love in that pot. This is something I will make again and again. And company-worthy, too! WINNER!

    As said by others, this recipe is easy, quick and so very delicious. I cheated and used small meatballs from my local italian market and it was PERFECT. Very tasty, and I love that it doesn't have orzo or rice in it, lowers the calories!! Giada never lets us down!

    Hey if it's a Giada recipe it must be worth the try. It's easy and very tasty and the only things I changed were I used spinach ( instead of endive and I also added in some thin sliced strips of carrot not only for taste but color mostly. I've been a chef for 27 years and yes it's true, "You can teach an 'ol dog new tricks", thanks Giada

    I make soup everyday for my pizzeria in southern New Jersey... I came across this recipe and gave it a try... WELL... This soup was so quick and easy to make and the flavor is wonderful. I did use escarole in the soup and cooked my meatballs in the chicken broth as stated in the recipe. (I never did that beforeI think that made a huge difference in the flavor. I also i'm a little heavy handed when it comes to grated cheese. I use internet recipes all the time but this is the first time i ever posted a review. Cheers!

    Delicious! As others did, I used Israeli couscous instead of the eggs...just seemed more traditional to me. Also used kale instead of endive, as that is what I had on hand. My family gobbled it up. Delicious with little toasted crostinis to dip in the soup - brush thin slices of Italian bread with olive oil and top with grated parmesan, then baked at 400 for 8 minutes. My husband sprinkled chili flakes in his soup too and loved it.

    I included a bit of fresh sage with the chopped parsley, if you'd like to try! The soup is a grand slam and I think I get why they call it 'Italian Wedding Soup' since it's not necessarily a traditional Italian custom. I think it has to do with how the egg/parmesan mixture you add at the very end ends up looking like lace within the Italian meatballs and green endive texture. Try it; super easy!!
