Quick tips before starting the recipe.

- You can make this soup cheesy if you add in 8 ounces of your favorite cheese freshly grated.
Making the creamy turkey soup recipe
- To start, dice the onion and mince the garlic.
- In a large pot on medium heat add a little oil then toss in the onions and garlic. Cook these until they are both fragrant and you start to see little brown bits in the pan.
- Now, add in the flour and mix it in with the onions and garlic. Add a splash of chicken broth when the pan gets dry to help you cook the raw flavor from the flour.
- Next, add in the frozen veggies and turkey. Then, pour in the rest of the chicken broth. Bring the pot to a simmer and cook for about 8 minutes to soften the frozen veggies.
- Once the veggies are done remove the pot from the heat and add in the heavy cream. Lastly, season with salt and pepper to your personal taste.
