You can lighten up your turkey noodle soup by using whole-grain noodles, adding more veggies like spinach or kale, and using low-sodium broth. These swaps will keep the soup tasty and more nutritious!

To make your turkey noodle soup healthier without losing that cozy vibe, try swapping out regular noodles for whole wheat or chickpea noodles. They’ve got more fiber and protein, so you’ll stay full longer. Throw in a bunch of veggies—like spinach, kale, zucchini, and mushrooms—to pack in some extra nutrients and flavor.
Stick with lean turkey breast or roasted turkey leftovers, and use a low-sodium or homemade broth to keep the salt in check. Olive oil’s a great choice for a healthy fat, plus you can boost the soup with white beans or chickpeas for extra fiber and protein.Spice things up with garlic, ginger, and turmeric—maybe even a squeeze of lemon to brighten it up. You’ll get all the comfort of the classic, just with a little extra goodness in each bowl. Enjoy!
