Craftscouts Leftover Turkey Soup Recipes

LEFTOVER TURKEY SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the carrots, celery, onion, and green beans. Cook 7 minutes or until vegetables begin to soften. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute. Stir in the flour. Cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes.
• Slowly stir in the stock, rosemary, salt, thyme, oregano and black pepper and bring to a boil. Stir in the orzo. Reduce heat to medium so that the soup gently boils and cook for 8-10 minutes (until the orzo is tender). Add the turkey, spinach, and lemon juice, if using. Cook for 1 more minute or until spinach wilts. Season with more salt and black pepper and serve immediately.

• Chop your veggies and turkey into roughly bite sized pieces.
• Get a big soup pot and start heating the oil in it over medium high heat. Saute the onion for a few minutes, until transparent.
• Add the celery, carrot, sweet potato, and turkey. Cook about five minutes.
• Add seasonings and enough liquid to cover veggies and turkey. This might be a quart or it might not. Bring to a boil and then drop the heat to medium low. Simmer for an hour, checking occasionally to make sure everything stays submerged.
