Tex Mex Turkey Soup

This delicious recipe is from my amazing friend, Karen. She is such a good cook and I love trying everything that comes out of her kitchen. This soup is a nice change from the traditional, uses up leftover turkey (or like I do, buy one on sale around the holidays, cook it up and freeze it for recipes like this) and will leave you fighting for any leftovers. 
 

Tex Mex Turkey Soup

1 Tbsp. olive oil
1/2 c. minced onion
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 tsp. chili powder
1/2 tsp. cumin
1/2 tsp. oregano
4 c. water
1 can tomato soup
1 (28 oz.) can diced tomatoes
1 c. salsa
4 c. shredded cooked turkey
1 Tbsp. dried parsley
3 chicken bouillon cubes
1 can black beans
2 c. frozen corn
1/2 c. sour cream
1/4 c. chopped cilantro

Cook onion and garlic in heated oil ~4 min. until soft. Add chili powder, cumin and oregano, cook for 1 minute longer. Stir in water, soup, tomatoes, salsa, turkey, parsley and bouillon, bring to a boil and simmer 5 minutes longer. Add remaining ingredients and simmer 20-30 minutes. Serve with:

6 c. corn tortilla chips
3/4 c. green onions, chopped
1 c. shredded cheese
1/2 c. chopped cilantro
1/2 c. sour cream

Let everyone put on desired toppings and enjoy :)
