This hearty soup offers another opportunity to use fresh summer produce while you’ve got it. To easily de-kernel corn, hold the ear of corn vertically in a large bowl and cut downward using a sharp knife. The large bowl will help contain the kernels, preventing them from flying all over your kitchen. If you don't have hot chili powder, substitute an equal amount of regular chili powder and add 1/8 teaspoon cayenne. You can also use ground chicken in place of the turkey and any white beans you like. Great Northern beans, white kidney beans, or chickpeas would be tasty in this soup. You’ll need to buy 2 limes to produce 2 tablespoons of lime juice.
