With about 3 servings of veggies per bowl!! Read below for the recipe and nutrition information!
Recipe Information:
Makes 4-5 servings
Total time: 45 minutes
Ingredients:
1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 lb 99% lean ground turkey
3 garlic cloves
1 small yellow onion, diced
Seasonings of choice: I love about 1 tsp of salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika!
1 zucchini, chopped
2 cups frozen (or fresh) spinach
Optional veggies encouraged! I used a bundle of broccoli leaves and they were DELICIOUS. Kale would be great, too!
32 oz pre-made tomato soup (I love this tomato & red pepper one!)
1 cup water
1 container of spinach tortellini (I love this one from Trader Joe's!)
1 cup plain Greek yogurt
Recipe:
In a large stock pot over low heat, add olive oil and turkey. Use a large utensil to break up turkey and cook until browned, for about ~5-6 minutes. *Turkey does not need to be fully cooked at this stage!
Once turkey is ~almost~ cooked through, add garlic, onion, and seasonings to the stock pot. Stir to combine with the turkey.
Add veggies to the pot! Stir in with turkey until they begin to wilt.
Add full container of pre-made tomato soup and water to the pot. Stir well to combine into the contents of the pot.
Once soup is simmering, add full container of spinach tortellini. Let simmer for ~4-5 minutes, until noodles are tender.
Lastly, add in Greek yogurt and stir well until fully combined. Soup should be thick and creamy at this point!
Remove from heat, serve warm, and enjoy! I added a warm ciabatta roll on the side :)
Nutrition:
Yellow onion: onions are a good source of vitamin C, folate, vitamin B6, and potassium. They're also full of antioxidants and sulfur-containing plant compounds (quercetin and thiosulfinates), which may lower blood pressure, protect the heart, inhibit the growth of harmful microorganisms, and prevent the formation of blood clots! Yellow onion contains up to 11 times more antioxidants than white onions.
Zucchini: zucchini is rich in many nutrients and plant compounds! It's high in vitamin A, vitamin C, lutein, manganese, zeaxanthin, and beta-carotene, which support eye health and vision! They're also great for the immune system. Zucchini is high in heart healthy carotenoids, antioxidants, fiber, and potassium, as well. **Fun fact: zucchini is botanically classified as a fruit!
Spinach: spinach is absolutely PACKED with vitamins and minerals, making it so beneficial in many ways. Spinach has vitamin A for our tissues and skin health, vitamin K for our bones and blood clotting, iron to support healthy blood and oxygen transport, potassium for blood pressure, and more. It also has antioxidants such as lutein to support eye health and cognition!
Tomato: tomatoes are rich in vitamin C and potassium! They contain an antioxidant called lycopene, which is linked to many benefits including a reduced risk of heart disease and certain cancers.
Greek yogurt: greek yogurt is a great source of protein, vitamin B12, riboflavin, and selenium! It's also great for gut health, bones, and supporting muscle recovery.
