Well here we are with just a few days until Thanksgiving! It’s so exciting isn’t it? Well I know we’re not thinking about leftover turkey just yet. But I wanted to get this soup recipe on your radar so that when you have leftover turkey to use up in a few days you’ll be ready!
Anyway, I really love the Slow Cooker Bacon and Beans because bacon is just a winner isn’t it? And I love the seasoning packets included in the Hurst’s products because they are so flavorful and you don’t have to add a million of your own seasonings. You’ll notice on this recipe that it only has a handful of ingredients. This makes it so easy to get this recipe going in the morning.

This just could never work at my home. Why??? Well, it calls for three (3) cups of diced left over turkey. When the last one left our table there was maybe one (1) cup of turkey still on the serving platter!!!!! (Note to myself: “Get bigger turkey next year”)
LOL!!! I just bought a turkey so I could have leftover turkey!
I've never used Hurst Beans before, Karen, but I can see that I need to try them. Lots of flavor and a real time saver. This soup look delicious and I have 4 ripe avocados in my refrigerator. Guess I should make a double batch!
Yes, Allie, you should try them! Such a great way to get dinner on the table.
