Meatballs:
Stir together the first 6 ingredients in a large bowl; stir in Parmesan cheese, beef and pork. Make and shape 1 1/2 t. meat mixture into one inch diameter meatballs. Place on a baking sheet; set aside.
Soup:
Bring broth/stock to a boil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add meatballs and endive or escarole; simmer until meatballs are cooked through and endive is tender, about 8 minutes.
Whisk eggs and cheese together in a medium bowl. Stir soup in a circular motion, gradually drizzling egg mixture into the moving broth, stirring gently with a fork to form thin stands of egg, about 1 minute. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Serve topped with grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.
