    I just put my recipe into the database, it comes out pretty healthy without the corn chips, cheese and sour cream :)

    Here are the stats:

    Number of servings 7-8

    Ingredients Calories Carbs Fat Protein
    Foster Farms - Lean Ground Turkey, 16 oz 480 0 6 88
    Generic - Onion - Raw/Large, 1 onion (150 g) 60 14 0 2
    San Marzano - Crushed Tomatoes, 3 1/2 cup 280 56 0 14
    Beans - Kidney, canned, 2 cup 420 74 3 27
    Great Value - Canned Corn, 2 cup 240 36 4 8
    Old El Paso - Original Taco Seasoning Mix, 1 container (12 tsp ea.) 120 24 0 0

    Total: 1600 204 13 139

    Per Serving: 229 29 2 20

    sorry the formating is wierd. first number is carbs, then fat, then protein.

    Here are the directions:
    in large soup pot, brown ground turkey and onion; drain off excess fat (you shouldn't have much with lean turkey). Stir in tomatoes, beans, corn and taco seasoning. Simmer for 1/2 hour, uncovered. Serve topped with corn chips, grated cheese, and sour cream.

    Yum! I need to go buy the ingredients for this. It's a great winter food. I usually portion out 1 C servings and freeze them. When I want to eat, I thaw it in the bag, then dump it in a bowl, add a little water if it is too thick, and warm it up. It is so fast, easy, and delicious.

    I think I actually got this recipe from this website...I saved it on a word doc on my laptop. This soup is very good. I use FF Cheddar cheese, and low fat sour cream to top....oh and don't forget the cilantro!

    To cut sodium you can use no salt added tomatoes, beans, etc. and add spices to flavor the soup! It cuts a HUGE amount of sodium!

    Enjoy!

    This recipe from The Pioneer Woman is my favorite, and pretty easy too. It calls for chicken breast, but I've made it with lean ground beef, ground turkey would be fine too. To cut sodium, as someone else said, get the low- or no-salt tomatoes & beans.
