  • Tortilla chips
  • Sour cream

Instructions

  • Heat olive oil in a large pan on medium heat. Add turkey to pot, breaking up the meat with a spatula or potato masher as it cooks. Cook until no longer pink (about 5 minutes).

  • Bring soup to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 5-10 minutes.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • Use the right sized pot. This recipe makes a lot of soup, so you need to be able to accommodate all the liquid. A 6-quart pot will work well.
  • Cover your pot with a lid to help it boil faster.
  • Use a potato masher or spatula to break up ground turkey as it browns.
  • Increase the heat by adding a pinch of red pepper flakes, a couple dashes of hot sauce, and/or thin jalapeño slices to your bowl.
  • Make this dish vegetarian by omitting the ground turkey and swapping beef broth for vegetable broth.
  • Simmer soup for longer if you have time. The longer the soup cooks, the more flavorful it will be!
  • Be prepared to add more broth to any leftovers, as some ingredients tend to absorb liquid while stored.
