Turkey Tortilla Soup recipe

Today, we're going to work up everybody's cold-weather favorite: hot soup! This is one of my favorite recipes. The seasonings would be excellent with any game bird...but it's a wonderful way to make left-over turkey into a spectacular lunch! In a soup pot, bring a quart of chicken broth to a boil. Add 2 cloves of garlic...a half-cup each of chopped onions and sliced carrots...one chopped jalapeno...a cup and a half of your choice of green, yellow or red peppers...and a half cup of rice. Continue boiling until the rice is tender, about 20 minutes. When the rice is done, add a pound of cooked turkey or other game bird meat... lime juice...cumin...cilantro...and diced tomatoes. Cook until the tomato is slightly soft. Serve the soup with grated cheese, tortilla chips and a wedge of lime. It's the perfect recipe for a rainy-day lunch or a light supper in front of a fire...and it's so easy to make!
