Italian Wedding Without the Groom

I ate lunch with a friend today. We dined on hot soup with toasted plain bagels. The eatery we chose was a hole-in-the-wall bagel shop, where they also serve a different variety of soup every day. I chose one called Italian Wedding Soup as I'd never tried it before. It was delicious.
Minestra Maritata (Italian Wedding Soup)
1/2 LB ground beef
Combine the ground meat, breadcrumbs, egg, parsley, minced garlic, salt and black pepper in a bowl. Mix well with a fork. Using hands, form mixture into tiny meat balls. Place the meatballs on a greased baking sheet and bake for about twenty-five minutes at 350-degrees F or until browned. About ten minutes before serving, bring chicken broth to a boil in a large cooking pot; add the spinach and cook until tender. Add baked meatballs and return soup to a simmer. Stir in Pecorino cheese and serve.
Utter yum!
