RECIPE: Spicy Turkey & Rice Soup

If you still have some turkey lurking in your freezer and need a way to use it up, try this hearty and delicious soup packed with protein and flavor.

I put the Spicy Turkey and Rice soup in a large stock pot to cook but you could easily use your crock pot. Just add cooked rice about 15 minutes before serving. If you do not want to add rice, substituting shaped pasta would also be delicious.
