Healthy Recipe Link Up - Turkey Chili Taco Soup

Pam from Our Love Nest is hosting a new link up party and it's for health recipes.  Most people are quite conscious about what they eat and I am definitely one of those people.  I am always looking for fun, new and healthy recipes to try, so you can bet that I'll be linking up every week.

I am in a fierce soup mood these days, partially to the Fall weather we are experiencing and due to it's ability to fill me up and keep the calories to a minimum.  Pam has read my mind with her amazing sounding recipe for Authentic Maryland Crab Soup.  I have already e-mailed this to my home address to try out very shortly and I know both of my boys will love it.

I haven't yet tried this recipe out, but I know it will not disappoint on our menu tonight.  Gina's recipes are ALWAYS amazing and skinny.

Without further adieu, here is what I'll be cooking tonight:
