Shape the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter.
In a large pot, add beef broth, diced tomatoes, carrots, celery, and Italian seasoning. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
Carefully add the meatballs to the simmering broth and cook for 20 minutes.
Stir in the heavy cream and simmer for an additional 10 minutes, until meatballs are cooked through.
Serve hot and enjoy!
