MEXICAN TURKEY SOUP (CALDO DE GUAJOLOTE)



Mexican Turkey Soup (Caldo De Guajolote) image

I saw this in Ken Haedrich's "Soup Makes the Meal" and thought it would make good use of the turkey broth and meat we had left from Thanksgiving. It is a delicious soup! I am posting the original recipe which can easily be doubled and the seasonings can be increased or lessened to meet your family's tastes. To reduce the fat I simmered the veggies in broth and omitted the oil. I added extra of each of the veggies and also a diced zucchini. Delicioso!
