Healthy Harvest Soup

Healthy Harvest Soup

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.
