Crockpot Ground Turkey and Veggie Soup

Crockpot Ground Turkey and Veggie Soup is light yet satisfying, with tender turkey, sweet carrots, zucchini, and celery in a herb-scented broth.

Ideal for a cozy weeknight dinner or make-ahead lunches.

Crockpot Ground Turkey and Veggie Soup
  1. 1

    Warm olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add turkey, salt, and black pepper, and cook until the turkey is browned, breaking it into rough 1/2-inch pieces with a wooden spoon, 5 to 7 minutes.

  2. 2

    Stir in the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Transfer the cooked turkey to a 5-quart slow cooker and set the cooker to low.

  3. 3

    In the same skillet, add the celery, carrots, and onion. Cook, stirring, until the onions are translucent, 3 to 5 minutes; transfer the onion mixture to the slow cooker. Pour the chicken broth and the diced tomatoes with their juices into the slow cooker. Stir in the Italian seasoning, cover the slow cooker, and cook on Low for 8 hours or on High for 4 hours.

  4. 4

    Halfway through the cooking time, stir in the zucchini slices, replace the lid, and continue cooking.

  5. 5

    For serving, stir in the lemon juice. Season with salt and ground black pepper. Tear the spinach leaves and place about 1/4 cup in the bottom of each soup bowl. Ladle the hot soup over the spinach, stir, and serve. Garnish with shredded Parmesan cheese.

How easyChef Pro Scores This Recipe

easyChef Pro gives every recipe a health score from 0 to 100, built from more than 30 nutritional parameters including nutrient density, energy density and glycemic impact. It calculates rather than estimates, so the same recipe returns the same score every time.

The number is traceable. You can see exactly which nutrient moved it, so a dish scoring 78 might show fiber pushing it up while sodium pulls it down, alongside the NOVA processing level of each ingredient.

Your health goal changes the calculation itself, not just a filter. easyChef Pro applies clinically derived weighting across six health dimensions, which is why the same dish can score well for one goal and poorly for another.

Swap an ingredient or change the serving size and that math changes with it. Scoring your own version is the only way to see what your kitchen actually produces.
