Leftover Turkey Cajun 15 Bean Soup {Slow Cooker Recipe}

Leftover turkey sitting in your fridge after Thanksgiving can be used to make delicious and easy weeknight meals! This easy slow cooker recipe for Cajun turkey 15 bean soup is one of them.

This post is sponsored by Hurst’s Beans, but as always, all thoughts and opinions are my own.

When you have eaten one too many cold turkey sandwiches with your leftover turkey, add Hurst’s Cajun 15 Bean soup mix to make this easy slow cooker recipe! In addition to the turkey, you just need a few simple ingredients and a slow cooker to make it. Oh, and you need some patience to wait for it to cook, too.

Ideas for using up turkey after Thanksgiving is not a new topic for me. Last year, I gave you a few recipe ideas for using Thanksgiving leftovers. Actually, this soup recipe isn’t new either. The first time I made it was a few years ago. The thing is, the old post has photos in it that aren’t as nice as these are, and I never mentioned that the recipe is meant for a slow cooker! So I thought I would start over.
