Soup is the exception.
Yep, soup is the perfect way to eat leftover chicken or turkey.
My friend made this soup for me years ago and it was love at first bite. When she told me it was as easy as opening a couple of cans and jars, I knew it was destined to become a quick kitchen staple. Even if you love your day after Thanksgiving sandwich, this soup is the perfect easy and tasty way to use up the day three turkey leftovers.
Who doesn't want easy eats after a some serious Thanksgiving cooking?

Ingredients

Directions
3 cups cooked leftover chicken or turkey
1 15-ounce can white beans, drained and rinsed
1 quart container of chicken stock
tortilla chips and sour cream for serving
Directions
- Heat stockpot over medium-high heat. Add cumin and stir, cooking until fragrant.
- Pour salsa verde into pan
- Cook for 2 minutes then add the chicken, beans and broth. Bring to gentle boil
- Reduce heat to simmer and cook for 20-30 mins. Soup can be eaten after 5-10 minutes but I like to reduce the broth a bit.
- Serve with tortilla chips and sour cream if desired.
