Sweet and Sour Soup

[4 Servings: 1 Lean, 3 Green, 2 Condiments, 1/4 fat] *5&1 compliant

Meat Mixture:

15 oz ground lean turkey sausage (1-2/3 lean)

18 ground lean turkey (2 lean)

1/4 cup parsley, chopped (1 Condiment)

1 cup scallions, diced (2 Green)

2 tsp garlic, minced (2 Condiments)

1 tsp Coconut Aminos sauce (1 Condiment) *or Balsamic vinegar

1/2 tsp black pepper (1 Condiment)

1/4 tsp salt (1 Condiments​)
1 cup Beef Broth (<1g carb=1 Condiment)
Pinch of red pepper flakes *optional

SWEET & SOUR SAUCE Base:

2 cup tomatoes (4 Green)

2 Tablespoon SF Brown sugar Cinnamon Syrup (1 Condiment)

2 Tablespoon Light balsamic vinaigrette (1 Fat)
1 egg (1/3 Lean)

1 cup water

Veggie mix-ins:

 1-1/2 cup chopped cauliflower (3 Green)

9 oz cabbage, chopped (3 Green)

Directions

• In a large Dutch oven (I use Pampered Chef's RockCrok Dutch) to brown the meat, scallions and seasonings.
• In a personal blender, combine all the sauce Ingredients and pulse to combine.
• Pour sauce puree into Dutch oven over meat mixture
• Add veggies and bring to a boil.
• To keep warm until ready to serve you can put in oven at 200°F or I place it on a RockCrok slow cooker base from Pampered Chef. (*You can cook this all in a Crock-Pot itself on high for 4-6 hours.)
• Divide into 4 equal portions

I freeze the remaining servings in airtight containers like a 2 cup Tupperware for each separate servings for easy use later. Just remove when needed, thaw and microwave or reheat in oven.
