Special Precautions and Tips:
- If you don't have boneless, skinless turkey breast, you can substitute with a whole turkey breast and remove the bones and skin before browning.
- You can add other vegetables to the soup, such as potatoes, green beans, or corn.
- To make the soup thicker, add a cornstarch slurry (equal parts cornstarch and water) to the soup and cook until thickened.
