Quick And Healthy Turkey Veggie Soup Recipes

30 MINUTE HEALTHY TURKEY VEGETABLE SOUP

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven. Sauté shallots over medium heat for 3-4 minutes, until soft. Add the garlic and sauté for a minute longer. Add turkey and salt. Cook, stirring and tossing, until turkey loses its pink color, 4 minutes or so.
• Add 4 cups of broth, tomato puree, cauliflower, basil, oregano and crushed red pepper. Bring to a boil, lower to a simmer and cook, uncovered, for 10 minutes.
• Use an immersion blender to puree three quarters of the soup, or less if you prefer a chunkier texture. If you don't have an immersion blender, puree the soup in a food processor or blender and return it to the pot. Add additional broth if you want to thin the soup.
• Add shredded kale to the pot and heat the soup for 2-3 minutes, stirring, until the kale wilts and the soup is heated through.
• Ladle the soup into bowls. Drizzle with a little olive oil and top generously with grated parmesan.

"HEART HEALTHY" TURKEY VEGETABLE SOUP

Steps:

• In a large stock pot, bring the turkey stock to a boil.
• Add the carrots, celery, onion, garlic and the 1/2 cup white wine.
• Add the kosher salt, pepper, thyme and summer savory. Let this simmer over medium heat.
• Add both frozen mixed vegetables to the pot. Continue to let the soup simmer.
• Add the chopped parsley.
• Dice all the turkey (or chicken) meat in to half inch cubes.
• Toss the meat in a bowl with the seasoning salt and the olive oil.
• Heat a non stick skillet over high heat.
• Cook the meat in small batches. We're just looking for a good sear and some color, not it to be completely cooked.
• As the meat gets browned, dump it in the soup.
• When all the meat is browned, de-glaze the pan with the 1/4 cup white wine. Scrape all the bits off the pan and pour everything into the pot.
• Let the soup simmer over a medium low heat until the meat is cooked completely and all the vegetables are tender.
• Just before service add the basil chiffonade.
• I like to add a spoonful of fat free sour cream to my bowl. I find it adds a little extra richness and cuts some of the sweetness that comes from the veggies and the herbs.
