Traditional Italian Wedding Soup

• 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
• 1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
• 1/4 cup minced fresh parsley
• 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 tablespoon raisins, finely chopped
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 1/2 pound lean ground beef (90% lean)
• 1/2 pound bulk spicy pork sausage
• 2 cartons (32 ounces each) reduced-sodium chicken broth
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 1-1/2 cups cubed rotisserie chicken
• 2/3 cup uncooked acini di pepe pasta
• 1/2 cup fresh baby spinach, cut into thin strips
• Shredded Parmesan cheese, optional

1. In a large bowl, combine the first seven ingredients. Crumble beef and sausage over mixture and mix well. Shape into 1/2-in. balls.
2. In a Dutch oven, brown meatballs in small batches; drain. Add the broth and pepper; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Stir in chicken and pasta; cook 5-7 minutes longer or until pasta is tender. Stir in spinach; cook until wilted. Sprinkle with shredded Parmesan cheese if desired.
3. Before adding cheese, cool soup. Freeze soup in freezer containers. To use, partially thaw in refrigerator overnight. Heat through in a saucepan, stirring occasionally and adding a little broth or water if necessary. Sprinkle each serving with cheese.
