This one was a big hit. I was being lazy, and it turned out for the best. 
I started with a box of Pacific Foods’ beef broth, added a can of diced tomatoes, and some Costco frozen Italian meatballs. Once that was all hot, I dumped in a bunch of spinach (I like the prewashed baby spinach) and just barely wilted it. At the last minute, I tossed in some torn up fresh basil, which gave it a really nice smell. Served it up with a loaf of New Seasons’ fabulous Como bread, and all was good.
