Zippy Turkey Stoup Recipes

ZIPPY TURKEY STOUP

Steps:

• In a large pot, brown the ground turkey and onions in a little olive oil.
• Add all the other ingredients and bring to boil.
• Simmer 15-20 minutes, until rice is soft and flavors are well blended.
• Note: If you prefer a thinner, more brothy consistency add more chicken stock and taste to adjust seasonings.
• Note: The jalapenos don't make this really hot -- just a little zippy. If even this is too much substitute the milder Anaheims or "Cubanelle"-type sweet peppers. If its not spicy enough for you go for whatever variety suits your taste.
• Note -- I haven't frozen it, but it ought to freeze as well as any other soup.
