Description

This easy ground turkey soup with white rice is quick and easy to make and has lots of flavor. It's a great dish to make ahead of time since it freezes well and reheats perfectly.

Ingredients

1/2 pound ground turkey
1/3 cup chopped onion
1/3 cup chopped celery
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can chicken broth
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can fire-roasted diced tomatoes with juice
3 tablespoons tomato paste
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1 large bay leaf
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 cup frozen mixed vegetables
1/2 cup cooked white rice

Directions

1 Combine ground turkey, onion, celery, and garlic in a large saucepan over medium heat. Saute until turkey is cooked through and browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain fat from the saucepan.
2 Add chicken broth, fire-roasted tomatoes, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, oregano, bay leaf, salt, and pepper. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for about 10 minutes.
3 Stir in frozen vegetables and rice and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Remove bay leaf and serve.
