Who doesn’t love a warming, cozy pot of soup? Break out your big spoons (and an extra leaf for the table) for this delicious one-pot, big batch, 30-minute dinner to warm up the whole crew. This one boasts all the flavors of savory turkey and bean tacos in one light, satisfying bowl. It starts with ground turkey sautéed with our blend of Southwest spices, plus garlic, onion, and tomato for a deeply flavored broth. You’ll add hearty red beans, shredded Mexican cheese, a dash of hot sauce, and finish with a sprinkle of fresh scallions (and even more cheese!). This recipe is double the typical servings, providing 4 servings and 8 servings for a 2 person and 4 person box respectively.

Cooking Steps
• Wash and dry produce. • Peel and mince or grate garlic. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Dice tomatoes.
• Heat a large drizzle of oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Add turkey*, Southwest Spice Blend, salt, and pepper. Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until turkey is lightly browned and mostly cooked through, 3-5 minutes (it’ll finish cooking in the next step). • Add garlic, scallion whites, and tomato paste; cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 minute.
• Add diced tomatoes, stock concentrates, cream cheese, and 1½ tsp sugar (3 tsp for 8 servings) to pot with turkey mixture; stir until well combined. • Stir in beans and their liquid and 3 cups water (6 cups water for 8); bring to a simmer and cook until tomatoes are softened and turkey is cooked through, 2-3 minutes. Turn off heat. • Stir in half the Mexican cheese blend and as much hot sauce as you like; taste and season with salt and pepper.
• Divide soup between bowls; top with scallion greens and remaining Mexican cheese blend. Serve.
Ground Turkey is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 165°.
