This recipe is a hearty and flavorful soup that’s perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. It’s loaded with ground turkey, vegetables, and all the classic cheeseburger flavors you love.

Ingredients:

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 pound ground turkey
• 1 small onion, diced
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
• 1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
• 1 tablespoon tomato paste
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup chopped carrots
• 1 cup chopped celery
• 1 cup chopped potatoes
• 1 cup frozen corn
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)

Cooking Guide:

1. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the ground turkey, onion, and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the turkey is browned and the vegetables are softened, about 5-7 minutes.
2. Add the chicken broth, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, oregano, parsley, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
3. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes.
4. Add the carrots, celery, and potatoes. Simmer for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
5. Stir in the frozen corn and simmer for another 2-3 minutes, or until heated through.
6. If desired, stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until melted.
7. Serve hot and enjoy!

Tips:

• For a richer flavor, you can brown the ground turkey in butter instead of olive oil.
• Add other vegetables you have on hand, such as green beans, zucchini, or peas.
• If you like your soup thicker, you can mash some of the cooked potatoes in the pot before adding the cheese.
• Make it a complete meal by serving the soup with a side of whole-wheat bread or crackers.
• Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
