Turkey Chili Taco Soup




On those rare occasions I don't bring leftovers for lunch at work, I always buy the Turkey Chili Soup from Fresh and Co. It's light and healthy and one cup always fills me up.

Now I know I have quite a few chili recipes on my site, but this one is perfect when you need a quick meal. Courtesy of my friend Julia, of Julia's Healthy Italian Cooking. If you've been following me for a while, you'll know some of her recipes, Filetto di Pomodoro, Balsamic Chicken with Roasted Vegetables, Pasta con Sarde are just a few of her recipes featured here on Skinnytaste. She's an amazing cook, a working mother of four, and always cooks her family quick healthy meals made from scratch. This soup is a super easy to make and is ready in less than 20 minutes.

For a thinner soup add more broth, or you can leave the broth out and you have yourself a bowl of chili. Don't you love recipes that can be so versatile?

  2. Can't wait to try it! I absolutely love your blog... trying out your recipes has become my new mini-obsession! I just love how you make everything lighter and healthier! In the last week and a half, we have made your Skinny Tuna Casserole, Lighter Mac-n-Cheese, and tonight we tried your Lighter Eggplant Parmesan! YUM! :)

  6. I can never find leaner then 95% lean where do you buy it from? I don't know if we have the same stores because I live in Utah but just curious...

  7. Thanks for the wonderful recipe! I love chili, but rarely make it because the recipes that I have takes forever! I like how this is quick, and simple:)

  8. This looks like a great recipe! Can't wait to try it!

  9. Jenny-o and Shadybrook Farms carry 99% lean. The points might be the same for 95% lean.

    My one year old loved this, you can adjust it to your liking, play around with different beans, add chipotle peppers or jalapeƱo if you like it spicy!

    ReplyDelete
  10. Oh this sounds yummy! I've been waiting to find a good recipe that I can use my homemade taco seasoning with. thanks :)

  11. Just what I need to warm me up! I love that this nutritionally fits into my low carb/low fat/high protein diet for my PCOS. Keep them coming!

  12. My daughter who currently lives in the Dominican Republic, was home at Christmas and shared your site with me. I subscribed and have been planning a couple meals each week since then from your collection. Thank you and know that I have shared these wonderful recipes with others too! Thank you for your willingness to help others.

  14. This looks incredible. I'm a bit skeptical about the refried beans, but I'm going to give it a try. I love making soup/chili on Sundays and bringing the leftovers into work the next week.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Gina, I love turkey soup and was planning on making it this week anyway! Your recipe looks just scrumptious, and so warm. Thanks for sharing this recipe!

    ReplyDelete
  16. Because this is a "quick" chili, the refried beans give it that creamy consistency you get from letting your chili simmer all day. You could probably just use a can of your favorite bean and puree it in the blender if you prefer.

    Great Georgia!

  17. Chili is the perfect food IMHO. I love turkey chile w lots of veggies, Yum!

    ReplyDelete
  18. I love taco soup! My recipe also has a can of hominy and uses black beans instead of refried beans. This is a very adaptable recipe.

    ReplyDelete
  19. We had this for supper tonight, and the hubby loved it! Thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  20. Gina, this is probably one of my favorites of your chili recipies! I used lean ground beef instead of turkey, used the whole can of tomato sauce and only one can of chicken broth, and I made my own taco seasonings so it definitely had a kick to it! I added 2% Mexican cheese, cilantro, and a dollop of sour cream. Amazing! I was nervous about using the refried beans but it was sooo good! I also made the cornmeal cake to go with it! :)

    ReplyDelete
  21. I made turkey chili this week, too! I love how you can use whatever suits your palate and your pantry. I love the addition of refried beans to thicken this version up!

    ReplyDelete
  22. I made this for dinner tonight and WOW. It had so much flavor I did not feel like I was eating something good for me at all. The changes I made were: I used refried black beans (just because I love them), I didn't use corn (because I totally forgot - just found the package on the counter 5 minutes ago), and I used hot taco seasoning. I used maybe a cup of the chicken broth to get it to the thick and hearty consistency I like. The heat was definitely borderline too much, but once I added a dollop of sour cream it was perfect. I only cook for myself, but I am actually excited for once to eat all the leftovers!

  23. Are you sure this is only 5 points? I put this recipe into the recipe builder on weight watchers and it calculated each serving as 7 points.

    ReplyDelete
  24. I made this last night. Super easy to make, and really great flavor. Thanks for the recipe. .Enjoy your blog.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Not only was this delish, it was filling which made it easy to eat the proper serving size! Great leftovers for lunch today.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Gina- thank you for continuing to post the old points, I just cant convert over - I have done so well with the old points system I don't want to change.THANKS!

    ReplyDelete
  27. Made it tonight and used black beans instead of kidney. BEST TACO SOUP EVER and SO easy! Thank you!

    ReplyDelete
  28. made this tonight, so quick and easy and best of all delicious!i used lean ground beef so that uped the points to 6 points(old program) per serving(hope my math is right) i did add a few dashes cumin and adobo at the end for a little more flavor but other than that everything else was the same. top with cheese, sour cream,and with tortilla chips was the perfect way to eat this!

    ReplyDelete
  29. I made this tonight as well, I topped it with reduced fat cheese, fat free sour cream, and fresh cilantro, yum!! I also used black beans instead of kidney beans. I added the ingredients I used to the recipe builder and it did come out to be 5 points prior to adding the sour cream and cheese (for the poster above who was concerned). Thanks so much for your recipes Gina! This is the second one I made this week and they are definitely helping me stay on track :)

    ReplyDelete
  30. Made this last night and we loved it...I did add some additional chili powder but all in all it was a big hit....thanks for all of your great recipies.

    ReplyDelete
  31. That picture looks delicious. I will be making this on saturday. Thanks for sharing.

    Dianne.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Isn't this great and filling!! Yes, this is 5 points plus, and Thanks Candice for confirming that!

    Love all your variations, avocado on top will be a must next time I make this!

    ReplyDelete
  33. Vegan Option- I made the Turkey Chili Taco Soup (with 2 changes) and it was wonderful. I used 3 cups of cooked lentils in place of the turkey meat and added my own spices instead of the taco seasoning. My body has real issues with sodium and even the reduced sodium was too much for me. I tasted it and was happy with the result. While I was setting the table my eighteen year old niece showed up with three of her friends. They ate the chili soup- yes all of it !! They topped it with fat free yogurt and hot sauce. Thank you for a healthy economical recipe that even the teenagers will eat.

  34. i was wondering what kind of chips those are in the picture? the chili looks really yummy! love you blog!!!

    ReplyDelete
  35. OMG, I just had to comment and tell you how much I loved this recipe. I was reluctant to make it because I have a chili recipe I use alot and love, but this was so easy, so good, and so different than my usual chili. It was the perfect combo of tasting fresh and tasting so flavorful like it had been cooking all day. Not sure how you do it, but keep up the good recipes. LOVED this one.

    ReplyDelete
  36. I made this today, and it was good. I did add some chipotle tabasco for an subtle smokey flavor and i was great. Thanks.

    ReplyDelete
  37. just wanted to say I had done the math wrong when I made this and im so excited that even with using 96/4 lean ground beef this still only comes out to 4 points(old plan) per serving! this so good im making it again tonight so i can freeze a bunch of portions!

    ReplyDelete
  38. The tortilla chips are Rice Works, they are actually made of rice. Love them!

    ReplyDelete
  39. I made this last night and it was excellent. Very easy and great flavor. This one's a keeper!
    Thanks!!!

  40. Thanks for sharing,I used 3 cups of cooked lentils in place of the turkey meat and added my own spices instead of the taco seasoning.

  41. This looks amazing! Gina, how would the points/servings change if I leave out the chicken broth and make it as a chili? Thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  42. ThE points remain the same. The serving size would be one cup.

    ReplyDelete
  43. This was delicious thanks, and lovely reheated the following day

    ReplyDelete
  44. I made this for friends for a nice lunch & it was really good. I made the Crockpot Chicken Taco Chili last week and was surprised how different these were. I think it was the refried beans. Very good & definitely a keeper! :)

    ReplyDelete
  45. OMG SO GOOD! I actually fwded this to my SIL and to my BFF. AMAZING! Hubby didn't know it was 'diet food.'.

    I don't follow WW--just try and eat healthyish. I have made this 2x and OMG YUM ALERT!!!!

    I'd never know it was WW. The changes I made were: 2 full cans of low sodium chicken broth (about 3.5-4 cups), a whole lime squeezed into the finished soup, and some low fat cheese and chopped cilantro on the dishes when served. The second time I used 95% lean beef but surprisingly, I preferred the turkey. I didn't use lean turkey, just regular ground turkey.

    I only cook for myself and hubby, but we demolished this. I am actually excited to eat my frozen leftovers for lunch.

    TY GINA! This was FAST and DELICIOUS!

    ReplyDelete
  46. Gwyn, yes very different! Both yummy!

    Jennistar- love adding lime and cilantro to my soup! Thanks for your comment!!

    ReplyDelete
  47. I liked this chili/soup quite a bit and my husband finished two bowls of it! I also increased the amount of broth I used to 3 cups and, as a result, had to add a little extra chili powder along with the package of taco seasoning. Really quick and tasty!

    ReplyDelete
  48. I made this last night and it was delicious. I squeezed just a bit of lime over it and put in a tbsp of sour cream, reduced fat cheddar, and scallions. The scallions and lime were great (had them on hand because I also made the cilantro dressing from your site, which went great over lettuce as a side salad to this meal.) I added tomato paste because I found the soupiness unappealing and I'm a huge chili fan. The refried beans in this added an unusual taste that I liked a lot.
    I also mixed in 1/4 cup baby spinach leaves for added nutrition. I do that to any food whose taste is so good that it can stand up to spinach, and this meal was definitely good enough!
    I had leftovers for lunch today- great!- and froze two portions. Just the right size.
    What I really like about this meal is that it satisfies my craving for Mexican food, especially when I have the salad with cilantro dressing with it- the jalapeno has a great kick!
    And it was SO fast and easy to make.

    ReplyDelete
  49. This doesn't just look yummy but it's yummy too!! I took out the onions and the green peppers to share with my daughter (4 y/o) and she loved it too!! We will definitely have it again. =)Thank you for sharing.

    ReplyDelete
  50. I have made this three times in 2 weeks. My husband LOVES it! The consistency is thick and satisfying and the flavor is outstanding.It makes a great main dish with a salad or for lunch. Keep up the great work. Martha

    ReplyDelete
  51. My family loves this recipe. It is very good leftover for lunches too. Thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  52. So glad you all like it! I love scallions, they are always in my house so I'm sure they were great with this.

    ReplyDelete
  53. I made this last night and it was delicous! I also made your cheddar biscuts to go with it, and just a great dinner. Even my leftover-hating husband (I know crazy right? I love leftovers!) said he was going to take some in to work! Thanks again for your recipes they are great and your website has become my go-to site for that never ending question: "what's for dinner?" haha!

    ReplyDelete
  54. I recently joined WW and found your website on the WW facebook page. I tried this recipe out for Dinner tonight and my 7 year old loved it! It was delish and so easy to make! I am so excited to try lots of your recipes.. Thank you!

    ReplyDelete
  55. This one was last night's dish... I made it with some cheesy cornbread muffins that I found, (I think) on hungry girl's website... they were ok... but the soup was GREAT! I found your corncake... do you have a cornbread recipe? or can you? :) I'd LOVE to have a good one for all these wonderful Chili's that are so healthy and tasty.

    ReplyDelete
  56. Thanks Gina, this recipe has been a huge hit in my household. It's so easy too!

    ReplyDelete
  57. Fantastic recipe! SOOO glad I happend to find your blog yesterday. Picked out dinners for the entire week and this was on the menu for last night! Can't believe how quick and tasty this came out! The only thing I added was a can of pinquitos beans. Can't wait to try the next recipes. :)

    Hope you don't mind that I do a reblog with big kudos to you!

  58. Thank you!! I'm happy you enjoyed it!!

  59. Love the soup! I just stumbled across your website, so many great recipes that include things in our pantry! I had been making the same WW meals, now thus gives me more motivation!
    Delicious :)

    ReplyDelete
  60. This is the first recipe I tried from this fabulous site and I am hooked! I left out the chicken broth to keep it more a chili consistency (I added about 1/3 bottle of light beer and a jalapeno to give it a little oomph!). PERFECT chili recipe. Thanks!

    Onto the zucchini, turkey burgers.

    ReplyDelete
  61. I have made this 3 times and each time is better than the time before. You can not tell it's low points nor can you tell it's turkey. Hubby loves it and used it on company and they loved it also. Enjoy!

    ReplyDelete
  62. Just made this soup!!! My husband and I LOVED it!! We did light sour cream and shredded cheese for 8 points total...mmm this blog is a favorite site now!

    ReplyDelete
  63. I made this for the first time tonight. I added diced jalapenos, an extra can of tomato sauce and a can of diced green chiles (none of that changes the points value). This was AMAZINGLY good. I will make this again for sure! Thank you!

    ReplyDelete
  64. This is simmering on my stove as I type. Can't wait to try it. It looks lovely!

  65. Nearly fell out of my seat, this was SO delicious!!!!

  66. This soup is fabulous....I love the addition of the refried beans.

    ReplyDelete
  67. This is so ridiculously good! I can't believe how many servings it makes and its wicked cheap! My roommate wanted to try it, then ended up having a whole bowl it was so good. Thumbs up to this recipe, it is definitely a keeper!

    ReplyDelete
  68. This is the best chili ever! I've made your chicken chili as well and I like this one over the other. This was really.... I would have to agree with what Sarah said. Nearly fell outta my seat too.... love that it is creamy

    ReplyDelete
  69. i made this last night. so easy! i added salt & pepper to the turkey while browning and some minced garlic with the onions. i didn't include the green pepper and subbed black beans for refried. it is delicioso!

    ReplyDelete
  70. I am going to be adding this to my calendar of meals for April. But I have one question... for the "refried beans", is this literally a can of refried beans, or is there something I'm missing? I just never thought of putting a can of refried beans in my chili... I want to make sure I make it right!

    ReplyDelete
  71. Yes, a can of fat free re-fried beans.

    ReplyDelete
  72. Just made this for lunch today! I'm not a chef or cook or baker at all, but this was easy peasy. I was skeptical about the refried beans too, but once I put it all together it was magical :) Thanks for the great recipe!!

    ReplyDelete
  73. I don't know if I've already posted on here, but in case I didn't I must say this recipe is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!

  74. Made this over the weekend with a friend who is also doing WW. We LOVED it111 So much flavor, and the refried beans were great! We thought it was weird to add them, but loved it!!

    ReplyDelete
  75. Thank you SO much for posting this recipe Gina! I have made it twice now and it's turned out fantastic both times. The only thing I added was a teaspoon of chicken boullion crystals and a tablespoon of chili seasoning. All I can say is AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME!!!

  87. This is EXCELLENT! Very easy and flavorful. I added a dollop of lowfat sourcream and 2% cheddar on top...OUT OF THIS WORLD

    ReplyDelete
  88. Another Skinnytaste success! My boyfriend told me if all the things I made for WW were this good - he was totally on board! I added a dollop of 0% Greek yogurt and shredded fat free cheddar. Yum yum yum.

    ReplyDelete
  89. This was SO good! I used a little less broth, only 2 cups and let cook down a little because I really wanted it to be more of a thick chili than a soup. All the same, delicious!! Will make again and again! LOVE the refried beans in this, adds a delicious different texture to the broth! Yum!

    ReplyDelete
  90. GINA!!! This chili is so tasty and so easy! I am new to cooking instead of calling take out every night and this was a perfect start to my new adventure. Also, the nine servings allowed me to share the goodness with my fam. My Dad would like me to tell you that this is "the best chili I've ever had and I've had a lot of chili in my long life." Thank you so much for sharing healthy recipes and demystifying the art of cooking for girls like me. ;)

    Simmering on the stove now, the taste test rocks! I used to put refried beans in my taco meat to hide the beans for my son...now he loves beans. I didn't have any rotel on hand (which shocked me), so I used to herdez salsa and I made my own batch of taco seasoning. Can't wait for dinner. Perfect football Sunday meal.

    ReplyDelete
  93. Great easy recipe! I spiced it a bit with hot sauce and LOVED it. You are amazingly creative and very talented! My family has lost 130 lbs. since January 2011 and your recipes have been a major part of the ease of it. Thank you!

    ReplyDelete
  94. I came across your site yesterday and everything looks so amazingly good... Made this one for dinner tonight - so easy and yummy. I subbed in black beans and plan to add some chopped jalapeno next time. I'm trying to wean myself from frozen diet meals and I think your site will be a great help. My husband who has no need for WW loved it too (he ate 4 servings!!!) and I have 4 servings left for the freezer. Thanks so much!

    ReplyDelete
  95. This was so good and so very filling! Awesome leftovers. We doubled it and froze into individual portions and my fiancee can't stop eating it! Making another double batch this weekend!

    ReplyDelete
  96. Made a quadruple batch for a church family event the other day. The turkey taco soup beat out the hamburger soup in popularity! I made it the day before and warmed it up in an electric roaster. SO great for a large group... a definite hit!

    Several people came back for seconds.

    ReplyDelete
  97. I have to second an earlier comment - I would be in heaven if you posted a cornbread recipe! Especially now that it's gotten colder (at least here) and chili is definitely starting to sound good...

    ReplyDelete
  98. This is one of my all time FAVES from skinnytaste! I'm off at college, and I often do not have time to cook every night! This meal is fast, and it lasts me a few meals!

    ReplyDelete
  99. Would there be a way to make this in the slow cooker?

    ReplyDelete
  100. I made this for my family, tonight, and it was a HUGE hit! I added 16 oz. of tomato sauce (out of habit) and chopped up two bell peppers and put it in the crockpot...other than that, I followed the recipe to a "T." It was quite delicious and will make again!

    ReplyDelete
  101. Wow! This chili is amazing! I was really hesitant about the refried beans, but they are definitely a must in this chili! I used ground chicken rather than ground turkey because I prefer the taste better and it turned out really well! It also refrigerates great so I had leftovers for lunch the next day! There hasn't been a recipe on here that has failed me yet!

    ReplyDelete
  102. Made this today—FANTASTIC! I added chopped celery and used vegetarian refried beans. Loved it! I just found your site and LOVE it!

    ReplyDelete
  103. Made this tonight for dinner, my son asked for seconds. It is so simple to make and so full of flavor! Thank you for making it so easy to stay on my points plus plan :) I served this with some baked scoop chips. 14 chips for 3p+.

    ReplyDelete
  104. I made this for dinner and loved it!!! Another one of your recipes that I will be making again. Thank You Gina !!!

  105. This looks delicious and I plan to try it this weekend but I am not a big fan of beans and am hesitant on the refried beans...would it alter the taste a lot if I were to leave them out?

    ReplyDelete
  106. Just made this. Wow! I made a double batch and it is so amazing. Thanks so much for this recipe!

  107. made this in the crockpot last night. i added garlic, a little splenda, and some adobo to the recipe. it was delicious, inexpensive, and easy to make. this will be on my regular rotation. thank you again for another low cal, healthy, delicious recipie.

    ReplyDelete
  108. This is fantastic. I used ground turkey breast (just my preference) and it tastes great

    ReplyDelete
  109. Hi Gina! I made this as a chili last night for a Chili Cook off we had at work today and I won first place! I'm directing everyone to your website for the recipe. My only comment is about bringing this to a boil. I did that and maybe because my pot was so deep but it burned at the bottom and I had to switch everything out so it wasn't completely scorched. It could just be me but next time I'm going to let it simmer slowly :) Thanks for the great recipe!

    ReplyDelete
  110. I made this yesterday so I would have soup to keep me on track this week. It is SO YUMMY! Thanks Gina for all your help on my weight loss journey!

    ReplyDelete
  111. I made this and loved it and my boyfriend who hates lean ground turkey and anything healthy thought it was delicious too! It made great leftovers and lasted a couple days! I definitely recommend this!

  112. I just finished making my first pot of this soup....oh my goodness, it is SO delicious! Thank you for sharing this fabulous recipe. It is so easy and quick to make. I have a feeling that I will be making LOTS of this soup ~~ I can't wait to make it for friends and family, but for now, this pot is all mine!!! Yum!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  113. I shall be making this. But, it is so easy to make your own Mexican seasoning (1tsp cumin, 1 tsp ground coriander, 1 tsp paprika, 1tsp onion power, 1 tsp garlic granules, 1tsp fructose sugar – you could use normal sugar, 2tsp chipotle flakes or 1 tsp chili powder (make it as spicy or mild as you like).)

  114. Made this for dinner tonight, OMG so good and my husband and kids loved it! This website has changed our lives not only are we eating better but we have added all of these new wonderful receipes into our family favs! Thanks Gina!

  116. I made this tonight and EVERYONE loved it even the kids I was shocked. I added a can of black beans as well as I love beans. I could not find the turkey 1.3 lbs all the frozen tubes are 1 lb. was your turkey fresh?

  117. Made this tonight and it was better than I expected. Very tasty! I havent made anything from this blog that wasnt good. Thanks Gina!

    ReplyDelete
  118. Besides the good food..what I love is the serving info. Most recipes say 5 points/serving but they never tell you what the serving size is so you are still in the dark. All these recipes give the serving size! Love that.

  120. Made this for dinner and it was a hit. I had to use ground chicken because I could not find turkey. Thank you for the recipe.

  121. This was really, really good!! I used to cook a recipe that took hours and used over 25 ingredients (includes spices) - but this is my go-to now!! My 2 year old twins and 5 year old even loved it, 5 year old loved it so much he asked for it to be his "birthday dinner" this year!! Thanks for another great recipe!!

  122. My husband likes me to make a soup once a week. So around 3:00 pm, I was frantically looking for a recipe because most of them require all day in the crock pot. This one was fast and easy! And delicious as usual!

  123. The only thing I would add is about the calorie count. I added all my ingredients up, omitting the bell pepper and using only half an onion, and I came up with only about 100 calories per cup. Were you adding in for the cheese and tortilla chips?

  124. I just made this without refried beans and without kidney beans but instead I used black beans (only because this is what I had). Turned out delicious. :)

  125. Made this tonight---yummy! I followed the recipe to a "T", except added a little more spice- cumin, curry, and chili powder. I was skeptical about the corn as I've never tried it in chili, but I LOVED the crunch it added. Thanks!

  127. I made this last week and I couldn't believe how quick and absolutely tasty it was!! I was also a little afraid of the refried beans but no need to be...it turned out perfect!!

  129. im contemplating making this with the Boca "meat" crumbles and wondering what you think? this has such a strong flavor ,and tastes good whether its made with beef or turkey ,that im hoping the soy meat will just soak up that taco flavor. im gonna try it and see how it turns out and let you know. not vegetarian by any means but bought this meatless product while on sale and want to play around with it :)

    2. well it comes out to the same amount of points(which is weird) so i would rather use meat but since i have the boca crumbles im going to give it a shot. making it today, ill come back and report my findings. ;)

    3. the verdict is in. this taste best if you use 96/4 ground beef. however it taste the same whether you use ground turkey or the boca crumbles, which is still pretty dang good! very happy with how it turned out with the meatless crumbles, if i ever find it on sale again i wont hestitate to buy and use in this recipe! :)

  130. Made this last night, holy cow it was delicious! I added medium heat pinto chili beans and black beans and used a mixture of hot and spicy taco seasoning with the reduced sodium seasoning. It was delicious! I will be eating this for the rest of the week, yum! Thanks for the great, healthy recipes.

  131. I made this a few days ago and it was excellent! I made my own taco seasoning, and it had a really nice kick to it. I also added a little squeeze of lime to my bowl as well. I'll definitely be adding this to my recipe rotation.
