Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

In a large soup pot or Dutch oven, combine the chicken broth, water, rosemary, and black pepper. (2 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over high heat. (5 minutes)

03

Step
2 mins

Stir in the frozen mixed vegetables, rice, and the seasoning packet from the rice box. (2 minutes)

04

Step
15 mins

Return the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and simmer gently for 10-15 minutes, or until the rice and vegetables are tender. (15 minutes)

05

Step
5 mins

Stir in the diced turkey and petite diced tomatoes. Heat through, stirring occasionally, until the turkey is warmed and the tomatoes are incorporated. (5 minutes)

06

Step
2 mins

Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more black pepper or a pinch of salt, if desired. Serve hot and enjoy! (2 minutes)

For a richer flavor, use homemade chicken broth or turkey stock.
If you don't have a quick-cooking rice blend, use regular long-grain rice and increase the simmering time accordingly.
Feel free to add other vegetables, such as diced carrots, celery, or onions, for added flavor and nutrition.
A squeeze of fresh lemon juice at the end can brighten the flavors of the soup.
Garnish with fresh parsley or a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt for extra richness.
