This is the best soup! It has just the right amount of kick and zing! I added a carrot and a zucchini and left out the fresh tomatoes. I also added brown rice. I will make this over and over again 
Thank you Mirj! It's fabulous!

Mirj, I used your recipe for Don't Throw Away That Turkey Carcass for the broth. Instead of the Roma tomatoes and chiles I used Rotel. The soup was fantastic!! I used another avacado, sliced in thin slivers for garnish. This was wonderful! Thanks for another turkey soup recipe in my book.

This is very easy to make & a delightful twist on the old, tired, traditional turkey soup. I spiced it up a bit more with more than was requested amounts of the spices, chili powder & bottled "Southwest Seasoning". I used a fair anount of salt & served it with tortilla strips on top. My whol family loved it!
