One of the best parts about making a big turkey dinner is all of the leftovers.<\/p>\n

This turkey noodle soup uses homemade broth, veggies, egg noodles, and leftover turkey for a warm, comforting meal.<\/p>\n

  • The broth can be made a few days ahead<\/strong>, once the broth is made, the soup takes about 20 minutes<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  • This turkey soup can be made with homemade broth<\/strong> (from a turkey carcass, below) or from prepared chicken or turkey broth or stock.<\/li>\n
  • Add any veggies<\/strong> and any kind of noodles<\/strong>. Leftover roasted veggies are great in this recipe.<\/li>\n
  • This soup freezes beautifully<\/strong> before adding the noodles.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n

    Ingredients for Turkey Noodle Soup<\/h2>\n

    Broth<\/strong>: Homemade broth or store-bought broth will work in this recipe. Below I\u2019ve included my fave recipe for homemade turkey broth. Of course, you can use boxed or canned chicken broth. I love using a turkey carcass from our leftover Thanksgiving turkey and making homemade broth for the very best flavor.<\/p>\n

    Adding vegetables to the bones adds flavor, I use carrots, celery, and onion with herbs. If you\u2019ve got other veggie scraps from making turkey dinner (the ends of green beans or onions, empty corn cobs, etc.) add them in! Don\u2019t peel the onion when making the broth, the brown onion skin also helps add color.<\/p>\n

    Soup:<\/strong> Once the broth has been strained and simmered down, add the soup veggies. The vegetables used for broth will be mushy so they can be discarded (although I usually snack on them!).<\/p>\n

    Noodles:<\/strong> I use dried egg noodles but any pasta shape works. If time allows, this soup is amazing with homemade egg noodles. I would suggest cooking the noodles separately from the broth and adding them to each bowl.<\/p>\n

    For this from-scratch soup, there will be two steps.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Make the broth with a leftover turkey carcass (or use store-bought broth)<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
    2. Make the soup using homemade turkey broth.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      How to Make Homemade Broth<\/h2>\n

      I love homemade turkey broth for soup!<\/p>\n

      SIMMER \u2013 <\/strong>Making homemade broth is easy, just add the ingredients (per the recipe below<\/strong>) to a large soup pot with water and simmer for about 4 hours. It can also be cooked in a slow cooker. If you\u2019ve got extra bones that haven\u2019t been used (like the neck or the back if you\u2019ve spatchcocked the turkey)<\/p>\n

      STRAIN \u2013 <\/strong>Strain the broth through cheesecloth to catch any tiny bits and discard the bones and vegetables. They\u2019ll be too mushy for soup.<\/p>\n

      SKIM \u2013 <\/strong>Let the broth rest so the fat separates and skim it off the top with a spoon (or use a gravy separator). Taste the broth and if you\u2019d like put it back in the pot and simmer uncovered to reduce it a bit. I usually reduce it to about 8 cups.<\/p>\n

      How to Make Homemade Turkey Noodle Soup<\/h2>\n

      This is really easy, once the broth is done it comes together in about 15-20 minutes.<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Soften the veggies in butter and add broth until they\u2019re tender.<\/li>\n
      2. Cook the noodles separately if you plan for leftovers, they can be cooked in the broth if you plan to eat it all without leftovers.<\/li>\n
      3. Stir in leftover turkey meat and parsley just before serving.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
