Creamy Turkey Vegetable Soup

"In response to request. This turkey soup is a work in progress. I try to perfect whenever a turkey is cooked. There is usually a bit of meat left over on the carcus, which we debone and cut up the meat...then make this soup and soup with the carcus!"

  1. This is really good. I omitted the sweet potatoes and added 6 or 8 cloves of minced garlic and 2 cans of cream of chicken soup. Delicious.
     
  2. A great use for leftovers! I added garlic, left out the sweet potato & added some sweet corn. This is a lovely soup & a great way to use leftovers.
     
  3. I started with your recipe as the beginning to my soup. To make the turkey broth I used Orrington Farms turkey base, as I'm pretty much too lazy to make my own stock! I had a container in the freezer that had been collecting extras of potatoes and veggies- so I threw that in, it was combo of sweet potatoes, red potatoes, russets and green beans. I left out the celery since I don't care for it. And lasty, I forgot to buy cream, so I added 1/2 cup of recipe #18157. What a great way to use up some leftover turkey from the Thanksgiving feast!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live in Las Vegas. I was lucky enough to run into Recipezaar around Nov. 2000 and got hooked quickly. I am a cookbook collector and have been collecting recipes for as long as I can remember. My DH had to build in shelves for all my cookbooks! I like to dabble with OAMC and for a few years hosted the Budget/OAMC forum with some great people over there. Even though I don't work in the forum any longer I've set up a lot of cookbooks for the purpose of OAMC and stretching food that might be helpful. Please feel free to check them out! I go on food jags and cooking jags! Please come say hi to me and chat on facebook. I currently host a blog for saving money through finding deals and coupons if you are interested. Most of the time I try to cook and have a good dinner on the table but I'll be honest enough to say there is still fast food occasionally in the budget! I have had such wonderful support here whenever I need it. Thank you all for being here! Just a quick note on how I rate recipes: ? 5 stars - This recipe is perfect. (My DH is truly a critic and doesn't give 5's unless it's amazing) I would recommend it to others and would definitely make again. ? 4 stars - This recipe was good but I would change something in it next time. ? 3 stars - This is a recipe I would not make again but it was OK ? 2 stars - This recipe I would not make again and we didn't like it at all ? 1 star - This recipes did not work out/taste was unappealing and wouldn't make again
