A final fox tip
Fun fact: chipotle peppers are basically ripened jalapeños that have been smoked and dried. Their heat and distinctive smoky flavor add a terrific depth to soups. Also, if running short on time, use pre-made broth and pre-smoked turkey to save on preparation time. Kids can help by measuring ingredients and stirring the soup while it cooks.
