Wild Rice and Turkey Soup

Another yummy soup. I love soups especially when I can make them in the crockpot.

Here is what you need:
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 medium onion, chopped (1/2 cup)
2 medium stalks celery, diced (1 cup)
2 medium carrots, diced (1 cup)
1 cup diced smoked turkey (6 ounces) ( I used 1lb ground turkey)
1/2 cup uncooked wild rice
1 teaspoon dried tarragon leaves
1/4 teaspoon pepper
3 1/2 cups chicken broth
1 can (12 ounces) evaporated fat-free milk
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup frozen peas

1) if using ground turkey, brown in skillet. Add the oil. Sauté the onion, celery, and carrots. Add to the crockpot.
2) combine all other ingredients except milk, flour and peas into the crockpot
3) cover and cook on low 6-8 hours.
4) during last 30 minutes of cooking, add the mix the milk and flour in a small bowl. Add to the crockpot and stir to incorporate. Add in the peas.
5) cook until the peas are done and the soup has thickened.

Enjoy!
