Cooking Steps
• Wash and dry produce. • Peel and mince or grate garlic. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Dice tomato.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large 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 tomato, stock concentrates, cream cheese, and ¾ tsp sugar (1½ tsp for 4 servings) to pot with turkey mixture; stir until well combined. • Stir in half the beans and their liquid and 1½ cups water (all the beans and their liquid and 3 cups water for 4); bring to a simmer and cook until tomato is softened, 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°.

- Ease of prep: Quick, easy, and perfect for weeknights; several appreciated the one-pot convenience.
- Suggestions: Consider adding tortilla chips, sour cream, or avocado for crunch and creaminess. Use all beans for heartier texture.
- Leftovers: Some found it reheated well; others preferred it fresh or thought it made great nachos.
- Texture: A few wanted a thicker consistency; reducing liquid or adding flour helped achieve desired thickness.
- Variations: Try swapping turkey for beef or pork, or adding corn, peppers, or rice for more substance.
