This soup is one of my favorite ways to warm up when the weather turns chilly. It’s full of beans, turkey, and vegetables, with our Cilantro Salsa giving it a fresh, zesty flavor. It comes together quickly with pantry staples, but still feels wholesome and comforting. Perfect for weeknight suppers, long winter evenings, or even as a hearty lunch to get you through the day.
