I am looking for the recipe. I know the net would have some but thought a member here would too. Is is a chicken broth base ? and what is the name of the tiny ball pasta ? Thanks.... :)

I made it Jenjen and substituted the endive with fresh spinach. It was delicious. I also found the right tiny pasta today. I have lots in containers in the freezer.

the tiny pasta balls are called pastina found in the dry pasta section. it is a chicken broth based soup with egg, spinach and tiny little meatballs. sorry i don't have a recipe but if you want to try a pretty good version Campbell's has one out now. Aptly called "Italian Wedding Soup". If Nona only knew I was eating her soup from a can...:D-

If you can't find a recipe, East Side Mario's has good Italian Wedding Soup :) My hubby's been known to eat 4 or 5 bowls of it in one sitting, on top of his meal!!
