Ingredients:
- 1 lb turkey or chicken meat, boneless, skinless and cut into bite size pieces or shredded (raw is fine , but left over can be used, too... you will just add it at a different time)
- 2 avocados
- 1 tsp each, cumin , paprika , black pepper , ground celery or any other of your favorite poultry seasonings
- garlic dill croutons
Directions:
- In large stock or soup pot, cook bacon pieces over medium heat, about 5 minutes to begin cooking and render fat.
- Add onion.
- If using fresh turkey or chicken, add it to bacon(with 1T olive oil, if needed) and cook, stirring occasionally, until cooked. Do not let brown or over cook. If using cooked meat, just cook bacon until done but not crispy and add the meat in the next step.
- Add tomatoes, stock, water, dill and other seasonings.
- Simmer over medium heat for 30 minutes or so.
- Prepare croutons, below
- In blender or food processor, combine lemon juice, Dijon, avocado and cream and blend until smooth.
- Add this mixture to simmering soup, whisk or stir well.
- Continue to simmer, but do not boil, for at least 10 more minutes, but can continue to simmer for longer, if desired.
- Add spinach about 10-12 minutes prior to serving. It should wilt down but don't let it over cook. :)
