Ingredients

  • Non-stick cooking spray
  • 4 garlic cloves pressed or minced
  • 1 medium white or yellow onion diced
  • 2 medium carrots peeled and diced ¼ inch
  • 2 celery ribs diced ¼ inch
  • 1 pound 93-percent lean ground turkey
  • 3 tablespoons (50g) tomato paste
  • 8 cups chicken broth
  • 6 cups shredded cabbage
  • 1 teaspoon basil
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 1 small zucchini chopped
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions

  • Heat a large pot over medium heat. Spray pot with non-stick cooking spray or a drizzle of olive oil. Add garlic, onions, carrots, and celery. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions begin to soften and turn translucent around the edges, about 5 to 8 minutes.
  • Turn heat to medium high and add the turkey. Use a wooden spoon or spatula to break the turkey into crumbles as it cooks.
  • Once the turkey is no longer pink, add tomato paste. Cook until the tomato paste begins to stick around the edges of the pan, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Add broth, cabbage, basil, and oregano and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 10 minutes and then add zucchini. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, until all vegetables are softened.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve and enjoy!!

Notes

Storage: You can make it up to 3 days in advance. Store covered in the refrigerator and reheat over medium heat on the stove, stirring occasionally.
Advance prep: You can precut all the vegetables up to 48 hours in advance. Just remember that they are being added in 3 stages, so store the cut onions, carrots and celery separately from the cabbage and the zucchini, which should both be stored on their own.
