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.
- Partner Tip
- Try using a Reynolds® slow cooker 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!

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.
