I didn't make it in the crockpot, but instead on the stove, and it turned into more of a stew than a soup, but it was awesome!<br />I didn't have corn and I forgot to put the peas in it and I added a cup of quinoa.

I just made 1/4 of the recipe because my husband's deployed, but it worked well.<br /><br />I didn't have celery, peas, baby tomatoes, or frozen meatballs.

I also didn't really have to add the pizza sauce because it was on the meatballs.Janahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04991493339627435468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5090591139439935093.post-62338126532363927682009-04-24T01:06:00.000-07:002009-04-24T01:06:00.000-07:00These Albondigas meatball soup recipe sounds grea...These Albondigas meatball soup recipe sounds great and looks even better.
