Turkey Vegetable Soup Recipe
Turkey Vegetable Soup – ground turkey, mixed vegetables, beef broth and brown rice – ready in under 30 minutes. Leftovers are great for lunch and it freezes well. My husband gobbled this up! I’ve already made it 3 times this month!!
I’ve made this Turkey Vegetable Soup a couple of times this month. It is SO good and actually pretty good for you too. BOOM! This soup has tons of great things in it! Ground turkey, tomatoes, mixed veggies, corn and rice. It has lots of great flavor. We like to eat it for dinner and again for lunch the following day. I freeze any leftovers for a quick lunch or dinner later in the week/month.
I made a few little swaps to the recipe. Ground Turkey instead of ground beef, lower sodium beef broth and brown rice instead of white rice. I actually preferred the swaps. I can’t imagine that it would taste any better with the “regular” ingredients.
This is totally going in our regular lunch/dinner rotation!

I found this recipe five years ago and I finally had to write in a thank you. I make this for my family several times a year, we all love it and I don’t change a thing.
I just made this with cauliflower rice and BOY was it yummy!
This recipe taste so good and I scanned the ingredients into fitness pal using a 20 ounce package of 93/7 lean ground turkey it's 250 calories and 7 grams of fat without the rice. I was planning on adding the rice but when I tasted it, it was perfect so I decided to eat it as is. Thanks Steph
It was so good! I made it with ground venison and white rice. It was great!
