This shortcut soup tastes like it’s been cooking all day and has tender pieces of turkey, carrots, onions, celery, and pasta noodles simmered a turkey broth. It’s easy to make and only takes about 25 minutes, a great option for busy weeknights.
Ingredients in Turkey Soup
Broth: Use either homemade or boxed turkey broth or even chicken broth or stock in this recipe. The addition of poultry seasoning and a sprinkle of parsley really adds a homemade flavor to boxed broth. To make homemade turkey soup from scratch, use the leftover turkey carcass or bones from Thanksgiving to make homemade turkey stock. You can also check with your local deli; they sometimes sell homemade broth or stock. Once the broth is prepared, follow the directions below to prepare the soup. Vegetables: I keep it simple with carrots, celery, and onion. Add your favorite veggies like sweet potatoes, mushrooms, canned tomatoes, green beans, or corn. Noodles: Add any kind of pasta or egg noodles to this recipe. Cook pasta or rice on the side for leftovers and add to each bowl. You can also use white rice, brown rice, or wild rice blend. Turkey: This is a leftover turkey soup recipe but if you don’t have leftover turkey meat, cooked chicken works too.
How To Make Turkey Soup
This recipe is a shortcut version of a homemade turkey soup recipe. It tastes like it’s been cooking all day! Once the onion is softened, I stir in a tablespoon of flour. This is optional, but it’s one of my favorite secrets for a perfect broth soup. It isn’t enough flour to thicken the soup, but it just gives the broth a little bit of body. © SpendWithPennies.com.
