How to Make Turkey Bean Taco Soup

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Sauté 1 medium onion, chopped, and 2 cloves garlic, minced, until onions are caramelized (about 5-7 minutes).
  2. Add 1 pound ground turkey and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through (about 8-10 minutes).
  3. Stir in 2 tablespoons taco seasoning, 2 cups water, 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes (undrained), and 1 (15 ounce) can corn (drained).
  4. Add 1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans (rinsed and drained) and 1 (15 ounce) can pinto beans (rinsed and drained).
  5. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat, and cook for 10-15 minutes, or until heated through and flavors have melded.
  6. Serve hot, topped with reduced-fat Mexican blend shredded cheese and/or reduced-fat sour cream. Optional: Add your favorite toppings like avocado, cilantro, or green chilies (if desired).
