- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1 medium-sized sweet red bell or cubanelle pepper, diced small
- 8 oz. fresh sliced mushrooms, snap large slices in half

How to cook:
- In heavy glass measuring pitcher, add water, chicken base and 1 bay leaf. Heat to boiling in microwave, stir until base is dissolved, set aside. (*I do this first thing to let it just sit and steep while I get everything else out and started).

- Add your red pepper, mushrooms, thyme and pepper, and sauté until all are tender as desired. Another 7 - 10minutes. (Some like very soft, some prefer a slight crispness).
- Stir in flour and cook, stirring now and then, gently folding for 2 minutes.
- Remove bay leaf, and slowly stir in chicken bouillon, then heavy cream, then wine. Bring to a simmer and gently stir and cook until thickened. Taste-test, add salt or pepper to taste. *I added another 1/4 tsp. regular salt as mentioned in the ingredients.
- Fold in turkey and peas and heat through.
- Serve over rice and toast points.
- Garnish with fresh chopped parsley if desired.
