Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp avocado oil
  • ½ red onion chopped
  • 1 lb ground turkey meat
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 Tbsp fresh ginger peeled and grated
  • 1 red bell pepper chopped
  • 2 large carrots chopped
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup full-fat canned coconut milk*
  • 1 to 2 Tbsp curry powder to taste
  • 1 Tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 1 Tbsp cider vinegar
  • 1 medium-sized head cabbage thinly sliced
  • 5 ounces baby spinach
  • 1 tsp sea salt to taste

Instructions

  • Heat the avocado oil in a large pot (such as a stock pot or a Dutch oven) over medium heat on the stove top.
  • Add the onion and sauté, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add in the ground turkey and use a spatula to break it into small chunks. Stir in the garlic and fresh ginger and continue cooking for 3 minutes.
  • Add the remaining ingredients except for the cabbage and baby spinach, increase heat to medium-high heat and bring it to a full boil. Add in the cabbage and cover the pot with a lid. It will seem like there’s too much cabbage at first. This is normal and it will cook down. Continue cooking at a controlled boil, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes. If you have more time, feel free to allow the soup to cook longer so that the flavors develop more.
  • Add in the baby spinach, cover the pot and cook until the spinach has wilted, about 3 minutes.
  • Taste the soup for flavor and add more sea salt, vinegar, or curry powder to your personal taste.
  • Serve soup in big bowls and enjoy!

Notes

*For creamier soup, use the whole can of coconut milk
