Wild Rice and Leftover Turkey Soup

"I originally created this recipe as a simple way to use up leftover chicken or turkey from previous meals. I really don’t like to throw away food, so I’m constantly dreaming up new ways to repurpose the same old stuff — and soups are about as easy as it gets! The hearty and satisfying wild rice, broth, and veggies make this turkey soup a filling option for cold nights. It reminds me so much of the chicken noodle soup that Mom always gave us when we were sick, and my own boys have come to love it as well. While extra chicken works great as a substitute in this soup, I wanted to share the recipe with you today because it’s perfectly well suited for a post-Thanksgiving meal. After a busy holiday full of rich food and hours spent in the kitchen, this turkey soup is a lighter option to take advantage of leftover meat while only requiring 15 minutes of prep!"
