I am a big fan of chicken tortilla soup and this looks like another great way to enjoy it, but with turkey instead. I'm definitely putting this on my list of winter dishes!

I used veggie broth instead of chicken, and I ended up adding quite a bit more than the recipe called for. I like chunky soup but this was *really* chunky with just 3 cups. Made a great amount and tasted delicious!
