Meatball Gnocchi Soup
.
.
1 batch of your favorite cooked meatballs, either homemade or frozen. 
1/4 cup olive oil 
1 large onion, chopped 
3 large carrot, sliced
3 celery stalks, sliced 
4 garlic cloves, chopped 
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 tsp dried oregano
1/4 tsp cayenne 
1/2 tsp smoked paprika 
1 (28oz) can crushed tomatoes 
1/4 cup tomato paste 
4 cups beef stock
4 cups of water
1 bay leaf
4 sprigs fresh thyme 
2 sprigs rosemary 
8 basil leaves 
1 (17 oz) package of gnocchi 
1/2 cup Italian parsley, chopped 
1/2 cup grated parmesan

In a large soup pot, saute carrot, celery, onion, and garlic in oil until softened, about 5 minutes. Add all the seasoning and saute for a minute. 
Add the tomatoes, stock, paste and water and stir until combined. Add a bay leaf and fresh herbs and bring to a boil. Add the meatballs and simmer 30 minutes. Add the gnocchi and cook 7-10 minutes more. 
Add  parsley and serve with parmesan

**Also, at the end I show how I love to serve soup in the colder months.  I get a sourdough bread bowl (many bakeries or grocery stores sell the minis… (I actually got these at panerabread)  warm them up, hollow them out and give everyone their own bread bowl. Makes for a terrific presentation
