Creamy Turkey and Wild Rice Soup Recipe
While this recipe calls for turkey breast, you can use any parts of the turkey you may have on hand. Reserved wings, thighs, back, or even a couple of turkey necks will work. You can also omit the raw turkey, cook the soup per the instructions, and when you stir in the cream add 2 cups of chopped leftover cooked turkey.

BROTH OR STOCK?
Broth is made primarily from meat, and it’s simmered with vegetables and herbs to add flavor. Broth is thinner, faster to prepare, and has a lot of flavor.
Stock, on the other hand, is made mostly from bones, along with vegetables and herbs. The bones release collagen into the cooking liquid. The collagen in stock adds a rich texture to recipes but not as much flavor.
