homemade creamy turkey soup
You can make the most of even the smallest pieces of leftover meat on your holiday turkey. I simmer the bones to get the rich flavor, then easily remove any meat that remains. I add rice, vegetables gravy & cream soup for a hearty soup that's tasty & economical. Mmmmm! I can taste it now!
