Thanksgiving Recipes: Turkey Black Bean Soup
What to do with leftover turkey? This is my favorite recipe and it is so easy. Another delicious idea is to add a scoop of leftover mashed potatoes or my gluten-free cornbread stuffing when serving. My favorite is the stuffing!
Ingredients:
1 can diced tomatoes
1 can tomato sauce
2 cups of cubed cooked turkey
1 can black beans or 2 cups cooked
16 ounces of low sodium vegetable or chicken broth
1 onion chopped
2-4 cloves of garlic minced
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup chopped carrots
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp cumin
½ tsp cayenne pepper (add more or less to taste)
Chopped cilantro (optional)
Saute onion, garlic. celery and carrots together in coconut oil or other heat-stable oil. When onions are translucent and carrots are soft, add all remaining ingredients. Let simmer for one hour, serve, top with cilantro, and enjoy!
