- I used fingerling potatoes and cut them into slices, but you can use whichever potatoes you prefer.
- I used low-sodium broth and tomatoes to reduce sodium, but you can use the broth of your choice.
- I used cannellini beans, but you could use kidney beans or other legumes you prefer.
- Serve with warm bread, breadsticks or your favorite crackers, if desired.
- I like to squeeze my own fresh lemon juice, but you can use bottled lemon juice in a pinch.
- Serve with fresh lemon slices as a garnish, if you'd like some extra lemon flavor.
- Store the soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop in a saucepot.
- This soup freezes well – you may want to have some in reserve for another day!
Here's how to make it:
- To a large soup pot or Dutch oven over medium heat, add the olive oil and onions. Stir to combine. Add the broccoli, carrots and potatoes. Stir to combine.
<Macro 'tip'> - Add the ground chicken. Season with salt and pepper, if desired. Break up chicken and stir to combine. Sauté until chicken is browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes.
- Add the chicken broth, turmeric, garlic powder and oregano. Stir to combine.
- Add the diced tomatoes, cannellini beans and lemon juice. Stir to combine. Cover and allow to simmer until all is cooked through and vegetables are tender (not mushy), about 15 to 20 minutes.
