I found this idea on Pinterest called, Feeding New Moms, which I tried to duplicate for Elise. One of the five parts in the Feeding New Moms blog post says that you should bring your new Mom soup. So, I went straight to Skinnytaste to find a good and healthy recipe that I could make for my friends!
Thankfully, I found this recipe for Turkey Chili Taco Soup. I made this recipe according to the instructions except that I let mine cook in the Crock Pot all day, because I wanted it to be warm when I brought it to my friend's house.
Let me show you what I did...
The Ingredients |
First, I chopped up my onion and bell pepper. |
Next, I browned my turkey. After that was cooked I added the chopped bell pepper and onion and let them cook for a few minutes. |
This is where I started to add the rest of my ingredients into my slow cooker, which is not what the original recipe tells you to do. |
I was nervous about what adding a can of fat-free refried beans would do to this soup. However, in the end it all came together really well! |
I added my chicken broth and spices. It's not on the recipe, but I also added salt and pepper to enhance the overall flavor. |
Finally, put my turkey mixture into my Crock Pot with all the other ingredients. Make sure that you stir together all the ingredients. |
I let this sit overnight in my fridge, before I cooked it all day on low in my Crock Pot. |
I tried some and it was great! It's a very hearty and filling soup that I would make again! |

In a large pot, brown turkey on medium heat, breaking up with a wooden spoon as it cooks. When cooked through, add onions and pepper and cook 2-3 minutes. Add tomatoes, corn, beans, tomato sauce, refried beans, taco seasoning and chicken broth. Bring to a boil and simmer about 10-15 minutes.

Freeze leftovers in individual portions for future meals.

I think if you leave out the chicken broth and refried beans, add a lg can of crushed tomatoes and 2 cans of black beans, you get 1 cup of soup for 2pts.
Great recipes thanks for sharing!:)
