After too many days of leftover turkey sandwiches last Thanksgiving, I decided to try making some soup. Creamy Turkey and Wild Rice Soup is the perfect use for leftover turkey. The savory combination of the turkey with the fresh slightly crunchy of celery and carrots and the earthiness of the wild rice is absolutely delicious.
