• Using your (clean) hands, gently mix all the ingredients well until everything is combined.
• Form small meatballs, about 1 tbsp each, you'll get about 20 to 22.
• In a large nonstick pot or Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium-low heat.

• Cover and reduce heat to low and cook for approximately 8-10 minutes until vegetables begin to soften.
• Add the chicken broth and Parmesan rind and increase heat to medium-high and bring to a boil.

Steps:

• Combine the chicken broth and 2 tablespoons oil in a large pot and bring to a boil.
• Meanwhile, add the turkey, panko, parsley, egg, garlic, salt, pepper and 1/2 cup Parmesan to a large bowl. Mix with a fork or clean hands until combined. Gently roll the mixture into 12 medium (2-inch) or 20 small (1 1/2-inch) meatballs and transfer to a baking sheet lined with lightly oiled aluminum foil or a silicone baking mat.
• Heat the broiler to high and set an oven rack 6 to 8 inches from the heat. Broil the meatballs until brown on two sides, turning halfway through, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.
• Add the pasta to the boiling broth and cook over medium until al dente, then lower the heat to a low simmer.
• Add the meatballs to the broth and simmer on low until completely warmed through, 3 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat, and add the spinach and lemon zest, stirring well, to wilt. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Divide the soup among four bowls. Drizzle each with olive oil, sprinkle with more Parmesan and squeeze a bit of lemon over the top. Scatter the dill over the top, or stir in.
