In a large soup pot, add the olive oil, onion, and red pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes on high until softened. Add the garlic and cook for 2 minutes. Next, add the ground turkey and break it up with your spoon. Add the spices, salt, and pepper and cook until the turkey is no longer pink (about 5-7 minutes). Add in the tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes. Next, add the canned tomatoes, broth, beans and chipotle peppers. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Lower the heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes. Taste for seasonings. Serve with shredded cheese, avocado, or Greek yogurt.
