Description

Rustic, delicious and big enough to feed the entire family. Filled with delicious mushrooms, seasoned pork and beef meatballs and as much kick as you want, this is guaranteed to bring a smile to all the family this winter.

Mexicans cuisine often includes its zest, but with this mushroom meatball soup, you can add as little or as much spice as you’d like. Luckily, the robust brown mushrooms, sharp garlic, and onion give this soup tons of flavor, as is. The savory beef and pork meatballs and kidney beans can satisfy even the heartiest of diners. Paired with a generous supply of cilantro and freshly squeezed lime, this recipe has a bold finishing touch.
