Directions:
- Combine first 8 ingredients for the meatball mixture in a large bowl. Mix well and form into tiny meatballs. I usually make them about 1/2 tsp to 3/4 teaspoon of meat mixture each. I make about 75 meatballs in all. Sometimes I have a little extra meat leftover and just make larger meatballs and cook those for another use.
- Bring the broth and frozen spinach to a boil and simmer for about 10 minutes.
- Return to boil and drop in meatballs a few at a time. Return to simmer for about 1/2 hour.
- Then add in cheese and orzo and simmer another 10 minutes.
- Ladle into bowl and grate some fresh Pecorino Romano or Parmesan on top.
