DIRECTIONS
In a large Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Once melted, add the onion, celery, carrots, and mushrooms.

Add the rice and cook for another minute. Stir in the turkey and broth. Bring the mixture to a boil and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook until the rice is cooked through, about 30 to 35 minutes. Stir in the parsley.
