This easy recipe is made with ground turkey and is a nice variation from the same old standard - chicken.
Use really fresh bok choy and slice it thin. I started out today and at my usual market where the Bok Choy looked lifeless. I moved on to Fresh Market and found some exquisite Bok Choy that looked like it just came out of a summer garden. Don’t settle for produce that isn’t the freshest.
Even my Chinese neighbor loved the taste of this soup but also talked to me about a half a dozen vegetables I could throw in to improve the flavor. I love good cooking advice and am so open to trying anything that will improve the taste of a recipe.
This is another one of those recipes you can toss just about anything in to use up your leftovers.
Bon Appetit!
