Cooking Steps
- Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
- Heat a large pot over medium-high.
- When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, mirepoix and orzo. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until orzo is toasted.
- Add stock powder and 4 cups (8 cups) water. Bring to a boil over high. Reduce heat to medium. Cover and cook for 8-10 min, stirring occastionally, until orzo has softened but still has a slight bite.
- Meanwhile, zest, then juice half the lemon. Cut remaining lemon into wedges.
- Roughly chop dill.
- Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
- To a large bowl, add breadcrumbs, turkey, half the dill, lemon zest, garlic and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt. Stir to combine.
- Using your fingers or two spoons, roll 1/2 tbsp-sized meatballs and gently drop directly into simmering soup. (Note: It's okay if meatballs are not perfectly round!)
- Cook for 3-6 min, stirring occassionally, until orzo is tender and meatballs are cooked through.**
- While meatballs cook, roughly chop spinach. (TIP: Place spinach in a bowl, then roughly chop using a pair of kitchen shears or scissors!)
- Add spinach and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) lemon juice to soup. Season with salt and pepper. Stir for 1 min, until spinach wilts. (TIP: If you prefer a brothier soup, add more water, 1/4 cup at a time.)
- Divide soup between bowls.
- Sprinkle feta and remaining dill over top.
- Squeeze a lemon wedge over top.
