Thankful for such amazing friends! This is the perfect soup to make with leftover turkey! My great friend, Chris, made this amazing Pumpkin Turkey Chili. I have such a hard time getting a good chili recipe since I can’t eat red meat. He told me about it and next thing I know I have a freezer full!

Tip: If you enjoyed your dining experience, thank your server, but also write a note of thanks on your bill, because not only will they see it, but so will the manager and whoever handles the paperwork after them.
