Turkey & Beer Cheese Soup

Ellie has a cold, so last night we were holed up at home. Hallie and Ryan were kind enough to bring us dinner and come hang out for awhile. Hallie created this soup recipe and it was delicious. Rob loved it. She cooks like I do when I make things up... a little of this and a little of that. This is her guestimation of what she did after I forced her to write the recipe down! :o) Actually, I'm guessing on the spices... she just added them to taste, so if you think you'd like more or less, go for it!

1 Turkey breast tenderloin

1 can sweet corn

1 can Northern beans

1 bottle dark beer (she used Sam Adams)

1 small yellow onion

1 (32 oz) container chicken stock

1 cup of chopped carrots (approx)

1 tsp minced garlic

1 tsp dried oregano

1 tsp dried thyme

fresh parsley to taste

shredded sharp cheddar to taste

salt & pepper to taste

Bake turkey breast tenderloin at 375 for 90 minutes (or according to package directions.) Chop and place in slow cooker. Add rest of ingredients and simmer on low 6-8 hours. Serve with more cheese sprinkled on top.
