Instructions

In a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat, add the tomatoes in juice and the refried beans. Stir together and bring to a boil.
Add the chicken stock to the pan, stirring constantly as the ingredients mix. Add in the turkey meat, and bring to a boil.
Once the soup has begun to boil, cover and lower the heat, simmering for 45 minutes.
Serve warm with ample amounts of cheese stirred in and topped with tortilla chips and avocado slices.

Notes

This recipe can easily be doubled, if you so desire. It also freezes well, so when the soup is done, don't dress it (like you would a bowl you're going to eat immediately), and transfer to freezer-tight storage containers. When you're ready to enjoy it, let it thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop, then top with the toppings of your choice.
