Cream of Turkey and Wild Rice Soup
A dear friend brought me some of this soup when I was ill - it really hit the spot. I asked her for the recipe and I've made it several times since, especially when I have leftover turkey to use up. Now I like to take it to friends when they're not feeling well. It's filling and really warms you up on a wintry day!6 ServingsPrep: 15 min. Cook: 20 min.
