How To Make build your own turkey noodle soup

• Step 1
  Preheat your oven to 400. Put the bones in a large baking pan. Roast for about 45 minutes or until well browned.
• Step 2
  Remove the bones from the pan and pick them for meat and set that aside.
• Step 3
  Put the roasted bones in a large pot and add water - or chicken or vegetable stock or broth - just to cover. Add small amount of your liquid of choice to the roasting pan to remove the browned bits. Add to the pan and bring to a boil. Simmer for about 2 hours .. longer if you have the time. The longer you cook, the deeper the flavor. This is a good one to simmer all night long. You might even put it into a crock pot for the day.

  Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 350. Cut your carrots, shallots and celery into chunks. Place in roasting pan that has been sprayed with non-stick spray. Roast until softened - 30 - 45 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside.

  Once the broth is ready, clear it of all bones etc. Add your cooked turkey and vegetables. Add your noodles.

• Step 7
  When you are ready to serve, just heat, add salt and pepper if desired and enjoy.
• Step 8
  NOTES: I've been making this soup for years. All the steps are critical to having a rich soup. I have never had my noodles go soggy on me. I have frozen this soup with great results. If you want a thicker soup just use your favorite thickener. Adding milk or cream changes the flavors to a whole different experience. I have added sour cream at the end and it's delicious as well. This truly is a create your own adventure soup .. just roast everything for maximum flavors.
