Can Turkey Vegetable Soup Be Made With Chicken
Well, you can but it isn’t turkey vegetable soup but it is chicken vegetable soup. Whenever we have leftover chicken, I love to make this recipe. The turkey and chicken are easily changed with each other and this makes an incredible turkey vegetable rice soup recipe.
Ingredients in Turkey Rice Soup
- Uncooked rice
- Celery Stalks Half
- Onion
- Red pepper
- Garlic cloves
- Green beans
- Carrots
- Turkey (For WW, you want turkey breast)
- Basil
- Salt
- Pepper
- 32 ounce vegetable or turkey or chicken broth
How to Make Turkey Soup
Start cooking the rice according to the directions.
While the rice is cooking, chop the veggies and sauté them until soft.
Add in the seasoning and turkey. Sauté a bit longer, then add the broth.
Once the rice is done, add to the veggies. I personally prefer to rinse my rice first. I find it makes the soup too starchy otherwise, but it is not necessary.
Bring soup to a boil slowly, on medium heat. Now your soup is done. Enjoy.
