Ground Turkey Vegetable Soup

Ingredients

  • 1 pound 93/7 lean ground turkey browned
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil extra virgin
  • 2 large carrots sliced
  • 2 stalks celery sliced
  • 2 medium russet potatoes diced
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 1 (14-ounce) can diced tomatoes
  • 1 (6-ounce) can tomato paste
  • 6 cups chicken broth
  • 1 (15-ounce) can corn drained
  • 1 (14-ounce) can green beans drained
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • ¼ teaspoon dried thyme
  • ¼ teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 bay leaf
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • In a large soup pot, brown the ground turkey over medium-high heat until fully cooked, breaking it apart as it cooks. Drain any excess fat and set the turkey aside.
  • In the same pot, heat the olive oil. Add the celery and carrots, cooking for 3–4 minutes until they begin to soften. Add the onion and cook another 3–4 minutes.
  • Stir in the garlic and cook just until fragrant, about 1–2 minutes.
  • Add the diced tomatoes, chicken broth, and tomato paste, stirring until everything is well combined.
  • Return the cooked turkey to the pot along with the corn, green beans, thyme, oregano, potatoes, and bay leaf. Stir to blend.
  • Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 30–35 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
  • Remove the bay leaf, season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve warm.

Notes

Brown the turkey first: Brown the turkey well and set it aside. It adds flavor without crowding the vegetables.
Small potato pieces: Dice the potatoes small so they’re tender in the same time as the carrots.
Bay leaf: Remember to pull out the bay leaf before serving.
Storage: Keep leftovers covered in the fridge for up to 4 days, or freeze them for up to 3 months.
