I am posting this recipe for a club member that requested a Turkey Soup. I hope you like this one version, and I think that it will be delicious, Beth. P.S. If you don't like Tarragon as a herb, you can substitute fresh Thyme and Parley for a fresher taste. Also, another member, Beth, added peas and potatoes to the soup...Just a consideration...
