Feel Good Soup

Whenever anyone in our house gets sick, my mother makes this soup and poof somehow you feel somewhat better. Its a herb soup with rice and meatballs, highly aromatic and just filled with love. I know a lot of people under the weather lately so pass this along to help them get better!

Please excuse the quality of the picture as I asked my brother to take it and his Samsung phone camera is not that great even though he pretends it is. Bless him.
