½ cup bread crumbs

¼ cup nutritional yeast

2 Tbsp each of oregano, onion salt, garlic powder, basil

Soup Ingredients:

1 cup whole wheat Israeli couscous (or any pasta/grain of choice)

3 bouillon cubes + 6 cups water (or 6 cups broth)

1 cup each of chopped carrots, celery and onion 

2 cups shredded kale or spinach

Directions:

Mix all meatball ingredients and form into golf sized balls. Place in the bottom of Instapot. Add soup ingredients on top (except for kale). Seal and set IP on high or soup setting for 15 minutes. When finished, quick release and add kale. Close lid back and let sit for 5-10 minutes or until kale has wilted.
