At same time, saute the turkey, chopped onion, chopped fresh garlic,
seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

pan of corn bread.

NOTES :

*This soup can also be prepared in the crockpot.

*This recipe originally called for beef but even with using ground sirlon
it was cal 38.9% from fat. Now by using the ground turkey it brought it way
down to 25.1%.

*This recipe originally calls for the regular RoTel minced tomatoes with
green chiles and Ranch Style Beans. This is very spicy! For a milder
version you can use the mild RoTel (or even regular minced canned tomatoes)
and canned Pinto Beans.
