Budget friendly AND healthy soup made from items you probably have in your pantry! Ground turkey is used with veggies and rice to replicate a family favorite stuffed cabbage dinner.
Servings: 12 servings
Ingredients
  • 1.25 lbs ground turkey
  • 1 tablespoon EVOO
  • 1 jar of marinara sauce (regular, 24 oz size)
  • 14 oz can of diced tomatoes
  • 1 small head of cabbage , shredded and cut into bite sized chunks
  • 1 cup chopped carrots

  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 2 cloves of garlic minced
  • 1 cup white rice
  • 1 teaspoon thyme
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt & Pepper to taste
  • 8 cups chicken stock (I use Better Than Boullion and water)
Instructions
  1. Heat a soup pot over medium heat. Add EVOO and heat for 1 minute.
  2. Add ground turkey. Crumble with a flat spatula or spoon while cooking to break up meat. Season with Italian seasoning.
  3. Once turkey is almost cooked through, add onions, celery, carrot , diced tomatoes and garlic. Cook 2-3 minutes, until onions start to become transparent.
  4. Slowly pour in the jar of marinara sauce. Stir to incorporate veggies. Sprinkle with thyme.
  5. Add cabbage in small batches, allowing to cook down before adding another handful.
  6. Once cabbage is cooked down, add rice. Stir.
  7. Slowly add stock. Allow to bubble for 20-30 minutes, until rice is cooked through.
  8. Season with salt & pepper, to taste.
