It’s happened… and there’s no turning back now! I’ve broken the seal and made soup to warm up during some recent cold nights. And as much as I tried to resist, we had to turn the heater on. Fall is here. I’m sad to say goodbye to summer but on the flip side, comforting meals are happily enjoyed at home these days. Soups are great for us because I can make a big batch and it makes for great lunches on the following days for Patrick and I. This Creamy Turkey & Wild Rice Soup was especially good with fresh out of the oven bread bowls to serve it in! A cream soup full of turkey, wild rice, onions, carrots and garlic was hearty and a great soup to welcome fall…
2 teaspoons butter
1 cup chopped carrot
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup chopped green onions
1 teaspoon chopped fresh or 1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 (16-ounce) cans fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
1 1/2 cups chopped turkey breast (roughly 1/2 pound)
1 cup uncooked wild rice
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 3/4 cups 2% reduced-fat milk
2 tablespoons dry sherry
1/2 teaspoon salt
Boule bread, with middles cut out for serving
Pinning this now 🙂 It looks so good – especially in the bread bowl! Thanks for sharing!
