Chef's Tips

  • If you don’t have time to add the vegetables later, add them in the beginning with the turkey. The peppers and cabbage will be softer due to longer cooking.
  • If dry mushroom packages are not available, you will need 1/2 cup (125 mL) for the recipe.
  • You can purchase cooked rice and heat it in the microwave or simply bring 1 cup (250 mL) of rice to boil with 2 cups (500 mL) of broth. Reduce heat to a simmer, cover and cook for about 10 to 20 minutes.
