Turkey Soup With Leftover Cleanup

"Having had 9 "stay-overs, for 2 days, I had a fridge FULL of bits and pieces. Pulled 5 recipes from Zaar, and although you may recognize parts of yours, I thought there were too many changes to call this a "review" for any one. The base is probably closest to #144905, but with LOTS of suggestions from others, made this a soothing meal after WAY too many holiday feasts. You may stop after simmering, and restart later in the day. Additional stock or water maybe added if too thick."

  1. Made for SoupFest2011. Janey this is a great comfort soup and I love how my fridge got cleaned from making it. Similar to other soups but better because it is snowing here, freezing, and I felt like a big ol' pot of turkey noodle soup. This fit the bill. I did make a couple changes- 1- no mushrooms :-(, added in alarge white onion diced as I had no shallots, added in corn as it was leftover from dinner the other day. Otherwise the kept all the other ingrediants the same. Now I am going to go and have a warm cup of soup by the fire and watching the flames go. Mike will really enjoy this when he gets home from his trip, that and the freezer and fridge were cleaned up some from "Souper" Bowl Turkey day.

<p>This photo of DH and me was taken on our 50th anniversary, 12/27/08. Both DDs and 2 DGC celebrated with us. <br /><br />DH and I live about 40 miles north of Baltimore, in what WAS rural 40 years ago. We are empty-nesters. Have 2 adult daughters, 2 great SIL, and 3 grandchildren --1 is 22, and 16 year old twins. In September of 2011, we were presented with our first GREAT-grandson !&nbsp; They all live in PA. and are VERY busy people ! <br /><br />I retired from MANY facets of nursing 12 years ago, and LOVE being in charge of myself ! <br /><br />We had a 4-couple Gourmet Group for so many years, that we ran out of new things and themes. Now we meet at restaurants, to avoid trashing the kitchen as well as the budget. We started with 7 course meals! None of us can DO that anymore !! <br />We have been VERY fortunate to be able to travel more than we ever dreamed !! Have B&amp;B'd in Great Britain many times; visited Italy, Greece, France, Australia, New Zealand, Germany, Switzerland, and Iceland (in February !) We would far rather stay in B&amp;B, or self-catering apartment or dwelling, than be on a tour. Our trip in '09, was to 2 small towns in Sicily --Sant'Alfio, on the slope of Mount Etna, in a 15th century, converted winery --and a week on the north coast near Cefalu. Very few spoke English, but everyone was helpful and we managed to communicate, and had a wonderful time ! (Photos in Gallery on website below !) We&nbsp; returned there in Sept. '11, for a 2 week vinyard tour with a small group, led by our local wine store owner - whose family is still in Sicily ! <br /><br />DH is my photographer - (and a website designer) but he insists on set-up time as well as a hot meal ! I should plan ahead for serving appeal, so he can get the best shot. <br /><br />I am now a SIX year survivor of colon cancer, as of 5/11, and four year of thyroid. Angels on my shoulder found both lesions before I even had symptoms ! I strongly encourage screening colonoscopies starting at age 50 -- that is ONE which can be totally avoided ! <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/untitled.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting /> <br />Was adopted by LMiller,RN <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/200_PACpic.jpg border=0 alt=Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket /> <br />Was adopted by RecipeReader <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/pacbanner.jpg border=0 alt=Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket /> <br />Adopted ElaineAnn <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg border=0 alt=Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket /> <br />Was adopted by ANG11002 <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/smPACp.jpg border=0 alt=Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket /> <br />Adopted *Pixie* <br /><br /><img src=http://i146.photobucket.com/albums/r271/copperhorse58/Zaar%20Food%20Photos/Food%20Photos%202008/herbspicesticker.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br />Partner - PaulaG <br /><br /><img src=http://www.satsleuth.com/cooking/Swap14.JPG alt= /> l <br />Teamed with PaulaG, CarolAT, and Sonya01 <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PAC08Main.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br />Adopted Kathy!!, DuChick, and Maito <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br />Adopted by Shirl(J) <br /><br />Australia/NZ Swap # 16 <br /><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/Hebe-1.jpg alt= /> <br />Partners -Kumquat the Cat's Friend, Red Chef Mama, and Twissis <br /><br />Australia/NZ Swap #17 <br /><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/boronia.jpg alt= /> <br />Teammates - Chickee, Whatcha Cookin' Mom, and MarthaStewartWanabe <br /><br />Australia/NZ Swap #18 <br /><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/BottleBrush.jpg alt= /> <br />Teammates - Jewelies, djmastermum, and mummamills <br /><br />Australia/NZ Swap #19 with joey <br /><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/quokka2-1.jpg alt= /> <br />Teammates- Elmotoo, Heydarl, Baby Kato <br />adopted Joey - Madilayn <br /><br />Australia/NZ Swap #20, Sept/08 <br /><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/FringeLily.jpg alt= /> <br />Teammates -I'm Pat, Porfavorcorona, pollyw <br /><br /><img src=http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj81/HokiesLady65/UsedBooksBanner2.jpg alt= /> <br />Partner - Connie C. <br /><br /><img src=http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z205/jubespage/AussieRecipeSwap.gif alt= /> <br /><br />Australia/NZ Swap #21 <br /><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/Dryandra-1-1.jpg alt= /> <br />Teammates - Jewelies, Baby Kato, Lavender Lynn <br /><br /><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/Cooking-Kangaroo-1-1.jpg alt= /> <br /><br /><a href=http://s270.photobucket.com/albums/jj117/tommysmom_photos/?action=view?t=shoeboxswap.jpg target=_blank><img src=http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj117/tommysmom_photos/shoeboxswap.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /></a> <br />Partner - SrtaMastra <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br />Adopted by Slatts <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PACfall08partic.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br />Adopted ChamoritaMomma and tonyp063 <br /><br />Australia/NZ Swap #22 <br /><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/Erica-1-1.jpg alt= /> <br />Teammates- Sarah_Jayne, busyozmum, mummamills <br />2 phutukawas and a pukeko in a ponga tree! <br /><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/Pohutukawa-2-1.jpg alt= /> <br />Teammates - Dotty2 and Sheynath <br /><br /><img src=http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z205/jubespage/2008AussieNZChristmasCardExchange.gif alt= /> <br />Sent to Sonya01, received from Sarah !.
