Turkey Soup
"I was trying to figure out what to do with my turkey after Thanksgiving and this is what happened. I really thought it was wonderful! You could do this in a slow cooker with little alteration...it would just take longer."

I made a few changes bit it's the best Turkey Soup. I put the turkey carcass in my Slow cooker at Low with an onion, celery stalks,a carrot, salt and pepper,bay leaf, poulty seasoning and let is cook overnight(app 10 hours.) Next moning I left my both in the slow cooker but spooned out all the bones,turkey and vegetables. Removed turkey meat from bones,set meat aside. In the slow cooker I added a chopped onion, the celery and carrots, let it cook at High for 4 hours; added the turkey meat and some noodles.It is the BEST! I just thought you might be interested in finding out how I made it work in my Slow Cooker.This is a keeper; thanks for posting! I wanted to mention that I removed 1/2 of my soup before adding the pasta and froze it. Next time I want turkey soup; all I have to do is add the noodles. Rita -
What a treat! I used Pasta Roni brand and also added a small can of corn, green peas, and mushrooms. I had a bunch to freeze too! Thanks for the great recipe! -
Worked great! Turkey was on special for .59 a lb but with only two people to feed that is a lot of turkey. I froze up 1/2 the soup for latter use.

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
