SHORT CUT SALSA VERDE TURKEY SOUP
Let's start with the turkey. It's ground (dark meat has more flavor!). And browned. Throw that in the slow cooker along with some spices, a couple cans of dreamy, creamy cannellini beans, a few cups of chicken stock, jarred salsa verde, a diced onion and a few cloves of minced garlic. She'll bubble, simmer and stew. Then right before you serve, give a loose chop to half a bunch of cilantro and squeeze a whole lime in. That will wake it up!

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the turkey to the skillet and sear, undisturbed, about 3 minutes. Flip, then sear, undisturbed again, about 3 minutes. Break up the turkey and continue to cook until browned. Add the cumin, chili powder, coriander, garlic powder, onion powder, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and let it cook 1 minute more.
- To a slow cooker, add the seasoned turkey, chicken stock, beans, salsa verde, garlic and onions, and stir. Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours, or high for 4 hours. Whatever you have time for!
- Before serving, add half of the cilantro to the pot, along with the juice of 1 lime.
- In a small food processor, pulse the sour cream, juice from half a lime and 1/3 cup of the chopped cilantro. (All this is optional!)
- Garnish with the avocado, queso fresco, sour cream drizzle and the remaining cilantro.
