Recipe type: Soup
Serves: 8
Ingredients
  • 1 lb ground turkey (organic if you can, at minimum hormone free)
  • 1 medium organic onion, chopped
  • 1 tsp organic extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 7 oz jar organic tomato paste (I use Bionaturae to avoid the plastic liners in cans.)
  • 4 cups filtered water (or chicken stock)
  • 2 tbsp organic lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp organic garlic, roasted
  • 1 tsp each: ground organic cinnamon, organic cumin
  • ¼ tsp organic red pepper flake, optional
  • 1 tsp organic liquid aminos (or organic soy sauce or worcestershire sauce)
  • 1 cup each: organic kidney beans, organic cannelini beans, organic edamame
  • Salt & pepper, to taste
  • 1 medium organic apple, chopped (or 2 tbsp organic coconut sugar or ½ cup organic apple juice) optional
Instructions
  1. Heat sauté pan and brown turkey and onions in olive oil.
  2. Add tomato paste, garlic, and spices. Stir into turkey and onion for 30 seconds. Then add filtered water an lemon juice.
  3. Add beans and apple then simmer for 30 minutes.
  4. Adjust seasoning as needed, then serve!
Notes
Pick a mealy apple that will dissolve in the soup. The purpose here is to add sweetness. I find that it rounds out the flavor really well, especially if you add the red pepper flakes.
