Mexian Meatball Soup (Aimee)

Mexican Meatball Soup

2 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup chopped onion
4 cloves garlic
2 small bay leaves
5 cans (14 0z) beef broth
28 oz. can tomatos (if you like smooth--puree first)
1/2 cup salsa
1/2 cup cilantro
1 cup rice

Meatballs

1 lb ground beef
1/2 lb sausage
6 tablespoons yellow cornmeal
1/4 cup milk
1 egg
1/2 tsp. cumin

So mix your meatball ingredients and brown in a pan, set aside. Add soup ingredients to the pot and then add meatballs and simmer. This makes a lot so it's nice to make and bring to another family, or invite some company!
