This was a killer soup! It has all the right flavors for a white chili with the addition of a few extra veggies. In other words a nutritionally complete one pot meal. My ideal! And since we don’t eat many beans these days the easy substitution is hominy. This chili was not only a success for Josh and I but the kids happily ate it too. Serious winning going on over here!!

to serve:
Instructions
- In a large skillet brown the ground turkey in a bit of oil over medium high heat. As it's cooking sprinkle in a bit of each of the seasonings (oregano, cumin, and smoked paprika). I didn't measure but I probably used about 1/4 teaspoon of each. Season with s&p. Once cooked through place in crockpot.
- To the crockpot add the zucchini, chayote, garlic, onion, lime juice, green chilies, hominy (drain and rinsed), oregano, cumin, and smoked paprika. Season generously with s&p. Stir to combine and add the quart of chicken stock. It should just cover all the ingredients.
- Cook on low for 8 hours.
- Serve with chopped avocado, limes wedges, tortilla chips, and cilantro leaves.
