I enjoy a broth-based soup and it’s an easy way to keep calories and fat under control.

Skinny Turkey Meatball Tortellini Soup

I used a lean ground turkey to make the meatballs to keep the fat and calories down. As well as to control the sodium, etc.

However, to save time, you may want to use frozen meatballs. Another option is freshly prepared meatballs. I usually find these in the fresh meat section cooler section of my grocery store.

More tips…

Additionally, I used 32 ounces of chicken broth for my soup. A lot of this broth is absorbed by the pasta. It’s not a ‘brothy’ soup. If you like more broth, add another 32-ounce carton of chicken broth.

I also used tender refrigerated cheese tortellini. You can use any pasta, corkscrew, elbow, or shells, would all be nice.

My Skinny Turkey Meatball Tortellini Soup is ridiculously easy to make and surprisingly filling. It’s so easy, it’s perfect for any night of the week.

Ingredients

Meatballs

• 1 pound ground turkey
• 2 Tablespoons whole wheat bread crumbs
• 1 Tablespoon fresh parsley chopped
• 2 Tablespoons Parmesan cheese grated (For best flavor, I recommend this, not this.)
• 1 large egg
• 1 clove garlic minced
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper ground
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

Soup

• 1 tablespoons coconut oil like this
• 1/2 cup onion diced
• 3 medium carrots sliced
• 2 cloves garlic minced
• 32 -ounces chicken broth I used Organic, reduced-sodium
• 9 ounce cheese tortellini example
• 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
• 1 pinch red pepper
• 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon salt optional
• 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese freshly grated
• 2 cups spinach fresh

Instructions

Meatballs

• Gently mix all the meatball ingredients until everything is combined.
• Using a small, spring release scoop, form small meatballs, about 1 tablespoon each.

   You’ll get about 25 to 28 meatballs

Soup

• In a large nonstick pot or Dutch oven, melt coconut oil over medium-low heat. Add onion, garlic, carrots, and meatballs. Cook 8 to 10 minutes, stirring to brown the meatballs on all sides.
• Add the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Add the tortellini, red pepper, black pepper, and salt. Cook tortellini according to package directions, usually about 7 minutes.
