Left over Turkey?

This is a recipe for Chicken and Vegetable Soup (from pocket cookbook from my sis called slow cooking simply delicious recipes) but I replaced the chicken with turkey and also cooked it on the stove in large stockpot!

Ingredients:
green onions 6
celery stacks 2
zucchini 1
carrot 1 (I used 2-3)
potatoes 2 medium (I omitted)
tomato, 1 large
chicken thigh fillets, 2
butter 2 Tbsp
chicken broth 8 cups
salt and pepper
green beans 2 oz
green peas 1/2 cup
parsley 2 Tbsp chopped
rice 1/4 cup uncooked

Finely chop green onion, celery, zucchini, carrot and potatoes. Core, halve, seed and chop tomato. Skin chicken , trim away fat and finely dice meat. Heat butter in large pan over medium high heat, add celery, onion, carrot, and zucchini- stir often until veggies are softened (5 min)

Transfer veggies to slow cooker and pour in broth, add potatoes, tomato and chicken. Season with salt and pepper. Put on lid and cook low 8-10 hours. About 4 hours before serving add green beans, peas, parsley and rice.
