Turkey and Potato Soup With Canadian Bacon (Cooking Light)

"I'm a soup lover and will be trying this as soon as I have left-over turkey. In the meantime, I'm posting this from Cooking Light's Nov. 08 issue. Pancetta can be subbed for the Canadian bacon."

  1. Absolutely delicious!! My whole family loved the soup. I didn't change anything except that I didn't have fresh sage so I substituted with parsley. I didn't think Canadian bacon would taste good with turkey but it sure did. My son who is 5 usually don't like soup, but the first thing he said that it was yummy. This recipe is definitely a keeper for me. Thank you so much for posting.
     
  2. Taste's like mashed potato on a spoon. Just delightful! A smooth soup that is so filling and satisfying that you want to eat two bowls. I didn't change anything except to use a apple cured thick sliced bacon in place of the Canadian bacon. Otherwise, followed the recipe exactly. I left a couple pieces of potato whole and the sage/celery leaves really added such a pretty look to the whole soup bowl. Quite a lovely soup, DuChick, thanks for posting this recipe! Made for a bonus tag, *Potluck Tag Game* January 2009.
     
  3. This is just plain yummy! Especially on a chilly day. I didn't have the Canadian Bacon and my proportions were 'just what I had already on hand' but the mashed 'taters' made it so, so good! 2Thumbs up at my house!
     
  4. Didn't have the Canadian bacon, so we substituted bacon bits added to the bowls. Also I used turkey sausage - I thought it was ground turkey. Very tasty.

I am... ~a mother of 2 kids (19 and 22) who are extremely picky eaters. The mere mention of "healthy" sends them running in the opposite direction. They prefer the creamy, cheesy, fried stuff that they weren't brought up on! ~a wife of a wonderful man who fights an expanding waistline and will lovingly eat most anything I set before him. Everything is 5 stars to him. :) He's the easiest customer a cook could ask for! ~a teacher who tends to reach for comfort foods to relieve stress. I am a middle school reading specialist. The miracles I see on a daily basis keeps me going! But it's also stressful, so keep me away from the cookie jar! I really have to fight off the sugary, fat-laden stuff that has no worth beyond the momentary comfort in my mouth. ~and I'm also a daughter who was brought up on home cooked meals back when calories meant nothing and taste was everything! That is an idea built into my system that's hard to shake! My mother raised 8 kids (I'm #7) on her home-cooking and I always teased her that she didn't raise a single skinny kid! I luckily inherited her great love of cooking and baking. (I miss you Mom!) ~finally, I'm "mom" to the best Bichon in the world. He is Quincy, our kid in a dogsuit.
