Instructions

  1. Step 1: Dice 1 lb ground turkey into small crumbles. Heat 1 tbsp avocado oil in a pot over medium-high heat. Cook turkey for 5 minutes until browned, breaking into small pieces. Remove and set aside.
  2. Step 2: Finely chop 1 medium onion and 3 garlic cloves. Grate 1 tbsp fresh ginger. Sauté in the pot with 1 tsp turmeric for 2 minutes until fragrant. Add 4 cups chicken bone broth and 3 medium grated zucchini (no need to spiralize), bringing to a simmer.
  3. Step 3: Return turkey to pot. Simmer uncovered for 15 minutes. Squeeze juice from 1 lime into the soup, then stir in 2 tbsp reserved broth to thicken. Serve immediately.
