Italian wedding soup is a classic, warming comfort food for good reason. Our version features delicious meatballs made with ground turkey breast, an egg white, plain breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, dried oregano, and garlic powder. All that's left to do is to stir the escarole, sweet onions, shredded carrots, and meatballs into some low-sodium chicken broth and let it simmer away until the meatballs are cooked through, which should take just 15 minutes. There's no orzo or other type of pasta in this recipe, which helps cut down on the calories and carbs, but the hearty meatballs and escarole are more than enough to keep you and your guests satisfied.
