- 1/4 Cup of Chopped Bell Pepper the colorful crunch
- 2 Tablespoons + 2 1/4 Teaspoons of Taco Seasoning or 1/2 Packet of Store-Bought

- Low-Sodium Taco Seasoning for the flavorful spice
Instructions
- In a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat, brown the 99% lean ground turkey until fully cooked. Break it apart using a spoon or spatula.
- Add chopped onions and bell peppers to the browned turkey. Sauté until the vegetables are tender and the onions are translucent.
- Pour in the tomato sauce, stirring it into the turkey and vegetables. Allow the mixture to simmer for a couple of minutes to enhance the flavors.
- Sprinkle 2 tablespoons + 2 1/4 teaspoons of taco seasoning (or 1/2 packet of store-bought) into the pot. Stir well to ensure the seasoning evenly coats the ingredients.
- Pour in the less-sodium chicken broth, bringing the liquid to a gentle boil. Allow it to simmer for about 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Stir in the fat-free refried beans and the can of Rotel tomatoes with green chilies. Mix well to combine all ingredients.
- Add drained no salt added kidney beans and drained corn to the pot. Stir to integrate the beans and corn with the other ingredients.
- Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning if necessary. You can add more taco seasoning or salt and pepper based on your preference.
- Allow the soup to simmer for an additional 10-15 minutes to let the flavors meld. Once ready, ladle the Skinnytaste Turkey Chili Taco Soup into bowls.
- Garnish with your favorite toppings such as shredded cheese, chopped green onions, or a dollop of Greek yogurt. Serve hot and enjoy a delicious and healthy taco soup!
Notes
- Use lean ground turkey for the best results.
- Feel free to add extra vegetables to the soup, such as bell peppers or zucchini.
- If you like your soup to be spicier, add more chili powder or cumin.
- If you're short on time, you can use canned beans and corn instead of fresh.
- If you don't have tortilla chips, you can use crushed taco shells or even crushed nacho chips.
