Super simple ingredients in this Creamy Turkey Soup using leftover Thanksgiving turkey.
I love to use a wild rice blend in this soup, but you can really use anything you want or have on hand.
If y0u use all wild rice, it will need to simmer longer or if you use all white rice then simmer less.
The creaminess in this Creamy Turkey Soup is from my favorite heavy cream from Hiland Dairy. I use it in all my dishes I want to make creamy. Perfect in soups to add richness and creaminess. Mix it in at the end to combine with all the savory flavors. Add a splash more to your bowl before you serve it too!
Yes, absolutely! In the non Thanksgiving seasons, just use chicken and make a yummy Chicken and Rice Soup.
