15. Leftover Turkey and Mushroom Wild Rice Soup

I make this recipe right after the holidays, but it works just as well with leftover rotisserie chicken.
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 8 ounces mushrooms sliced
  • 2 carrots diced
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups cooked turkey shredded
  • 1 cup cooked wild rice
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream

Method
 

  1. Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat.
  2. Add the mushrooms and carrots, cooking until they are soft.
  3. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a gentle boil.
  4. Stir in the shredded turkey and cooked wild rice.
  5. Reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes to let the flavors combine.
  6. Stir in the heavy cream and heat through before serving.
