"A hearty turkey noodle soup made from leftovers. If you are short on turkey meat, add more veggies!"

Footnotes
- Cook's Note:
- This recipe can be adapted to the stove top for a shorter cook time (saute veggies before adding them to the broth).
- Although I prefer the onion and celery minced, the carrots and turkey meat should be cut into larger bite-sized pieces.
- Editor's Note:
- The nutrition data for this recipe includes the full amount of the carcass and vegetables in the broth. The actual amount of these ingredients consumed will vary.
- Easy Cleanup
- Try using a liner in your slow cooker for easier cleanup

I thought this was a little bland. I added chopped fresh parsley and chicken seasoning for a quick fix. Overall easy to make.

I really liked this. I made it stovetop so I sauteed the veggies in butter before adding. Also added a little more seasoning. Will try again for sure!

I thought that this recipe was pretty versatile. I followed the recipe pretty closely but improvised on some ingredients (like the Basil and pasta noodles) and it came out very good. Very hear...

Added frozen vegetables and more seasoning than the recipe calls for. Additionally, I made this using the remaining meat from the Christmas turkey carcass. It was great.

I made it with the optional cream of mushroom soup. The soup came out creamy and delicious! However, next time I might try cook the cream of mushroom soup additional 15 minutes longer.
