Yellow Squash and Meatballs Soup

One of the soup recipes that I make...
4 cups of water boiled
1/2 a yellow squash, pealed and cut in big cubes
1 cube beef bouillon
------------------------------------------------------------


While the boiling water making the squash soft.... cut the veggies:
1 onion chopped
1 carrot sliced
2 gloves of garlic, cut
3 potatoes, cut
1/2 pepper red or yellow, cut
1 stalk of celery, cut
Pour two tablespoons of olive oil in the frying pan, heat it up and place all the cut veggies in the frying pan. For the spices I use a 1 teaspoon of kosher salt, paprika, cumin. A little bit of pepper, and parsley, plus one bay leave. Mix it all and fry for about 5 to 10 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons of flour over the veggies and mix it again. Medium heat high by the way. Put  aside.
------------------------------------------------------------


Go back to the pot with bouillon and squash. Place the soft squash in the mixer and make it smooth. Put it back into the bouillon, and add the veggies. I add some rice  as well, around 3 tbsp.
While it is all cooking, roll the meat balls in a tiny balls. Drop it in the soup and let it all cook for another 15-20 min. On a medium....even less heat high.
------------------------------------------------------------
For Meatballs:
1 package of ground beef
1 onion grined
1 egg
1 tspn. sals
black papper
paprika
parsley
3-5 tbspn. bread crumps
Mix it well.... wet your hands and shape the meatballs into a bite sized balls.
------------------------------------------------------------
