I’m loving this delicious, healthy and little spicy spin on your typical minestrone soup. First, I skip the regular canned tomatoes and use organic fire roasted tomatoes to give this dish an extra kick. Instead of pasta, chickpeas do the trick here to add a nice texture and a dose of fiber. Ground turkey is my go to when making meatballs but you can all always substitute with another organic, grass-fed meat of your choice.

This is one amazing bowl of soup. It’s hearty with chunks of vegetables and loaded with Freekeh, a middle eastern grain that is smoky and savory on its own. This soup is perfect for meal prepping because you can prepare a large pot and have plenty left over for the freezer and weekday lunches. Don’t skip the fresh marjoram, it makes the soup really fragrant and gives it even more flavor the next day.

These days, I’m eating and drinking a lot of turmeric and ginger-spiced food and drinks. The health benefits are undeniable so it’s no surprise I am posting quite a few recipes recently with these incredible ingredients. This gingery turmeric meatball soup is super for both sunny days and rainy days alike when you are needing a little immune booster.
