Welcome to my Paleo meatball soup in the slow cooker recipe.
Don’t you just hate it when you go on a diet or you decide to eat healthy and every meal time seems to involve chicken and vegetables or fish and vegetables?
Well this recipe is one of those that prove a point. It proves that Paleo is not about bland diet food but it is about having a good dose of vegetables in your diet and really enjoying your food.
I will confess now that I am a huge fan of meatballs. They are one of my favourite foods and snacks.
I love them in a meatball sub, as party meatballs with my late aunts’ delicious recipe or just as a traditional meal with some spaghetti.
But how about in a soup? Whenever I mention soup to Dominic he gives me that look of torture and why do I have to feed him soup.
But add some seasonal vegetables to a homemade tomato sauce with homemade meatballs and I have him hooked.
I reckon you could talk any soup hater round with this delicious invention.
It is also 100% Paleo and I am sure your kids will go back for seconds and maybe even thirds!
