    One of my favourite soup recipes Italian Turkey Burger Soup, both healthy and hearty made with lean ground turkey. Easy to make in less than an hour!

    Soup made with chunks of ground turkey, carrots simmered in tomato based broth. Served in black bowl and garnished with sliced green onion.

    With the colder temperatures starting to set in what could  be more comforting than a warm bowl of soup. This recipe for Italian Turkey Burger Soup makes a terrific lunch but so hearty it can definitely serve as a main course meal.
    two bowls of soup made with ground turkey, carrots, vegetables simmered in a tomato based broth. Served in black bowls, garnished with green onion.
    I am always looking for tasty ways to use healthy, lean, ground turkey breast. The problem with ground turkey is that it can taste dry and flavourless; not so with this recipe!  Moist lean turkey meat with scrumptious flavour.
    Soup with chunks of ground turkey, carrots simmered in a tomato based broth. Served in a black bowl and garnished with green onion slices.
    The combination of fresh oregano, thyme and basil with a tomato base add robust flavour to this exceptionally delicious soup. I usually use fresh herbs from my garden which I transfer indoors for the winter. They add superior flavour over dried, but if need be, dried herbs will still taste awesome in this recipe. Be sure to double up the recipe as this soup is even better the next day. Put in a thermos for school lunches your children will love!

      ITALIAN BURGER TURKEY SOUP RECIPE:

      Hello, my boyfriend loves Brussels sprouts. Can I add Brussel sprouts to this recipe? And if so, when should I add them? Please tell me the best way to prepare them and add to this recipe. Also at what point do they go in? Thank you so much!

        Hi Tina, I'm not too sure how brussel sprouts would taste, but I personally wouldn't like them in this soup.

      I just got an instant pot for Christmas so I adapted and made this soup. Browned the turkey in a separate pan. Sauted the veggies right in the pot...dumped everything else in. Manual 6 minutes QR
      It turned out perfect and the veggies are not mushy.
      Flavor is great..tastes like it's been simmering away!

      I used 2 tablespoons of cilantro instead of parsley and I also added diced potatoes. I used ground beef as well. Came out great. Thanks for this recipe.

      I made this soup tonight, and it was delicious! The fresh herbs are wonderful. I only used 1 lb. of meat, and added 2 cups garbanzo beans. My children and husband enjoyed it as much as I did.

      I have cooked this in the slow cooker as is, just fry up the ground turkey and stuff, then throw everything in the slow cooker for a couple of hours.
