Add a splash of extra virgin olive oil to the pot and saute' 4 carrots thinly sliced, 4 stocks of celery also thinly sliced and 1 whole yellow onion finely chopped.
While the veggies are cooking microwave 1/2 cup a water until it's nearly boiling. Get your better than bullion ready too! Add 8 teaspoons bullion paste and stir to dissolve.
I'm making a short cut here... I want to insure that the better than bullion is dissolved into the water so I'm adding a lot of bullion to a little bit of water so when I actually do add the water to the soup everything will mix nicely. I hope that makes sense.... it took way too long to type out to explain. Moving on....
Once the veggies are limp add 1/2 teaspoon crushed garlic
and a heavy dash of salt and pepper.
Now add the bullion and 7 and 1/2 cups water. 7 1/2 is to make an even 8 cups of water.... makes sense right? This pretty much the base to every soup I make. However, we are making turkey and rice so we must continue on.
Reduce the heat to a low simmer and add 4 cups
chopped cooked turkey breast.
Stir to combine.
Add three cups white rice. I used the instant variety.
Cover and let cook on low for 10 minutes.
Stir and serve.
It's hearty but light.
Enjoy!
