In a large bowl, gently mix all meatball ingredients until just combined. Roll into ¾-inch balls.

Heat olive oil in a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Brown the meatballs in batches for about 2 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.

In the same pot, sauté the onion, carrots, and celery for about 5–6 minutes until softened. Add the garlic and Italian seasoning; cook for 1 minute more.

Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and return the meatballs to the pot. Simmer gently for 10–12 minutes.

Meanwhile, cook the orzo separately until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Stir in the spinach and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes.

To serve, add orzo to bowls, ladle soup over top, and finish with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
