Southwest Turkey Soup

This might be the second easiest recipe that I have found that is clean!  I am a huge fan of Mexican food and as we all know it is not low in calories and fat!  So I am constantly searching out recipes that will satisfy that fix!  Here is one I stumbled upon in the Taste of Home Magazine!
I made enough for the rest of the week and pre portioned it out in tupperware containers and now I have quick easy meals for the rest of the week!  Planning is key to your success!

Ingredients:
  • 1 lbs ground turkey
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cans rinsed and drained kidney beans
  • 2 cans (14 oz) chicken broth
  • 2 cups frozen corn
  • 1 cup clean salsa
  • 1 can (4oz) chopped green chilies
  • 1 tbsp chili powder
Directions:  in a dutch oven, brown 1 lb of ground turkey in 1 tbsp olive oil and drain.  Add 2 cans of kidney beans that are drained and rinsed.  Next add chicken broth, frozen corn, salsa, chopped green chilies and 1 tbsp chili powder.  Bring to a boil; cover and simmer for 10 minutes.  Serve soup topped with fresh cilantro!
Makes 6 servings!

Packaged the extras for lunch/dinner
for the rest of the week!
