Instructions
Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey, onion, carrots, and celery. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, breaking up the turkey as you go, until the turkey is cooked through and the vegetables are soft. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
Stir in the tomatoes, broth, potatoes, cauliflower, and Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a boil and cook until potatoes are fork tender, about 10-12 minutes. Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.
Remove about half a cup of broth from the soup and whisk in the cornstarch until smooth. Stir into the soup and boil for another 3-4 minutes to thicken. Remove from the heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese. Taste once more for seasoning and adjust as necessary. Serve topped with extra shredded cheddar and green onions
Notes
You can substitute ground beef for the ground turkey. Omit the oil and be sure to drain the excess fat from the ground beef/vegetable mixture before you add the tomatoes.
If possible, shred your own cheese. Pre-shredded cheese is often coated in a mixture so that it does not stick together in the bag and it melts differently from the cheese you shred yourself.
