I notice that many people love matzah balls so much that they tend to leave behind the majority of soup in which they are served.
So, I decided that there needed to be a simple soup technique that could be devised so your guests would be able to enjoy it, along with their matzah ball(s).
Also, remember an important benefit to this style of soup is that the majority of the vegetables are uncooked. So, they still have the maximum amount of nutrients in them!
Another great thing about the stuffed matzah balls, in this recipe, is that, once they are cooked, they can be stored in a plastic container, in the refrigerator, for a few days. This makes it easy to quickly add them to a soup!
