There isn't a whole lot to this soup unless you want to know how I made the stock
Get a whole Turkey and Roast/Bake until done
Cut off all of the meat until all you have left are bones
Put all of the bones (or as many as you can fit) into the biggest pot you have
Roughly cut up an onion, a few carrots and celery and add to pot
Add salt, pepper and poultry seasoning
Fill pot with water till everything is covered and simmer for as long as you can-I did 5 hours
Strain liquid into another container, discard bones and veggies
Turkey Soup
*If using fresh veggies
Diced carrots, celery and onion (optional)
Saute' in big pot with a drizzle of oil
Add stock and let simmer for 10-20 minutes-till veggies are as soft as you like
Add cut up Turkey
Add noodles (whatever kind you like)
*If using frozen veggies, add at this point so they retain their color
Cook till noodles are al dente and veggies aren't frozen anymore
We had this last night and it was really good. I added some celery as well as most of the frozen vegetables and most of the pasta. We had it with fresh homemade wheat bread. Mmmmm. It was the perfect meal for my "had to have an emergency root canal the day before" daughter and everyone else loved it too.
