New to cooking healthy and tried this recipe. It was delicious! I didn’t have leftover turkey on hand so I used ground turkey, it gave it more of a slumgullion type feel. I sprinkled on fat free cheese and loved it. My husband however, said it was too bland and added part of a chili packet to it, but loved it so much after that he ate it three nights in a row! In our household, I consider that a success. Thanks Roni!

I just made this last week and it was a big hit with everyone. Instead of turkey, I used a rotisserie chicken from the grocery deli. I de-boned and skinned it. The rice was made in the rice cooker, but I had mine without rice and it was delicious. This is definitely a keeper.

Sorry, your email got stuck in my spam folder. I meant KICK to the broth! Just cause of the tabasco etc. I like stronger flavors. I need some sleep :)!

Totally could, and I thought about it. I just didn’t want the rice to soak up all the broth. :)

Roni, I wonder could you cook the rice in the soup?? Maybe not but it would make it a one pot job you know :)

Either way I’m keeping this recipe for after Christmas so I can make the best use of my leftover turkey bits and pieces! Yum!

Not sure what you mean by “a quick to the broth” Can you clarify?

Looks yummy, not only weighty but I love when there is a quick to the broth.

This is my kind of soup! lots of beans and veggies that I always have stocked in the pantry. I can hardly wait to make it. Thanks for sharing.
