     Used ground beef instead of turkey - because it's what I had on hand. Very tasty and easy to make. Will definitely make again. - 8/12/10

     A very tasty soup. I browned the meat and then combined all the ingredients in the slow cooker on high for 4 hours. Turned out great and no need to add anything to thicken it. The flavours are lovely - 4/2/11

     OH MY GOSH.... SO, SO GOOD!!! I made it exactly as written, except I substituted ground sirloin for the turkey. The spices were intersting - and tasted fantastic. I will be making this soup often. Thanks for posting this fabulous recipe :-) - 1/17/11
