SIMPLElicious: Turkey soup with Sweet potato and collards

Already sick of turkey sandwiches? Looking for a gluten-free option? I thought I’d strike while the iron (and the soup) is hot and bang out this simple recipe while I enjoy its deliciousness. It would be great if you enjoyed it, too.

1 tbsp butter
1 red onion, julienned
2 bouillon cubes
2c diced sweet potato
water to cover plus 1 inch
4c julienned collard greens
a handful of stemmed fresh savory
2c chopped leftover turkey
liberal salt
fresh ground pepper to taste

Melt the butter in the bottom of a good-sized pot, and sauté the onion in it for about 10 minutes. Add a bit of salt to sweat the onions while they cook. Then add the sweet potato, bouillon cubes and water, and cook for about 20 mins. Once the sweet potato is cooked through, add the turkey, collards, savory, salt and pepper and heat it through. Voila! You’re done! Wheeeeeeeeee
