Non-Dairy Turkey Chowder {to use up leftover turkey!}
Thanksgiving is the holiday that just keeps on giving.
Well, the leftovers just keep on giving anyway…
Besides the turkey sandwiches, the turkey casseroles, and the turkey salads, I love this take on an old favorite, New England Clam Chowder.
Having grown up in New England, my introduction to clam chowder wasn’t really an option. It is one of my favorite soups from my youth. That creamy, milky, delicate flavor with the sweetness from the clams and corn just makes it a forever favorite.
Non-Dairy Turkey Chowder: A New Classic Favorite
I live in a small village on the North Shore of Lake Superior now, so making my beloved soup is a bit more difficult since clams are not readily available.
During the holiday season, however, turkey is quite readily available; and turkey chowder is a practical and wonderful use of your leftover turkey. Plus, it’s just a great twist on an old classic.
By replacing regular milk with Wildly Organic Coconut Milk Powder, this turkey chowder becomes a non-dairy dish that can be enjoyed by anyone. If you need a milk substitute that’s still rich and creamy, Wildly Organic Coconut Milk Powder is a must-try.
My wonderful memories of chowder are now happily satisfied by this new classic.
