In a large heavy bottomed pot heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot add in the ground turkey, onion, salt and pepper. Crumble and cook the turkey until it's nearly cooked through.

Add in the garlic, tomato paste, Italian seasoning and smoked paprika. Stir until combined. Add in the carrots, green beans, potatoes, diced tomatoes, cannellini beans, bay leaf, Parmesan cheese rind, and chicken broth. Stir everything together and bring the soup to a boil.

Once boiling, lower the heat to medium-low and cover with a lid. Let it simmer for about 20 minutes or until the vegetables are tender. Remove the bay leaf and Parmesan cheese rind. Add in the peas and spinach. Cook until the spinach is wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Taste the soup for seasoning and add additional salt and pepper as needed. Serve topped with shredded Parmesan cheese if desired.
