Cream of Turkey (or Chicken) Soup Recipe

Fresh vegetables and herbs, stock, dry white wine, and half and half combine in this Cream of Turkey (or Chicken) Soup Recipe for one of my favorite comfort foods! Bonus – it’s amazing for using up left over turkey or chicken!

Despite the depth of flavor, this one pot soup is so incredibly easy and tastes like it took hours to simmer. Creamy and bursting with chunky pieces of turkey and the tender bite of fresh vegetables, this soup bares no resemblance to what comes out of a can in looks or taste.

Smoked Chuck Roast Chili

Smoked Chuck Roast Chili is my ‘Lotsa Meatsa’, super heavy on meat, very thick, light on beans version of chili. It has a deep, complex flavor from Guinness Stout, bacon, traditional chili spices, cocoa powder, and smoke. You don’t need a smoker to make it, but it is made on a barbecue grill.

Life is like a box of chocolates….

Or a variation of chili…

In other words, variety is the spice of life, in my humble opinion.
