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 4 servings) to pot with turkey mixture; stir until well combined. • Stir in beans and their liquid and 3 cups water (6 cups water for 4); 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°.

Reviews from our home cooks
This is a great winter dish. Who doesn't love a meaty, hearty, delicious soup on a cold day? The portions were so big that I had a large bowl for supper and a medium sized bowl for lunch for the next two days. I will find and order this again.
Delicious! Kids said "looks awful, tastes amazing" but they're not used to chili, lol. They loved it at the first bite, and that's what matters! I was delighted at how easy it was to adapt the recipe for heart-healthy levels of sodium and saturated fat -- total comfort food success for mid-January. Yay!
Something was off at first, we've had it before and it was way better. Turns out the prior version had significantly more calories, so we added a lot more salt and a good blob of sour cream to each serving. While not as healthy, it was much tastier.
I screwed up when I ordered this family size meal. But it turned out to be a happy accident because this was delicious! Only thing I did different was to add some corn because that just sounded good- and it was!
This was decent, but not as flavorful as I expected. I had to add salsa and hot sauce to get the flavor right.
It was OK. I made it more into a chili and didn't add the 3 cups of water or else it would have been less flavorful. Really good as just a chili :)
Added some sour cream and tortilla chips and launched my tastebuds to the stratosphere. So yum
Yummy base! I added more beans and a can of corn for the touch of sweet.
The flavors were delicious! My husband doesn't love chili but he thoroughly enjoyed it!
Recipe was confusing since this was a "2x the servings" recipe... what steps do I follow - the 4 servings amounts or not?
