Leftover Turkey-Apple-Noodle Soup. Uses leftover turkey and noodles with carrots, celery, onion, thyme, turkey or chicken stock, apple cider, and apple pie spice, salt and pepper.
Ingredients
- ~2 cup Turkey (leftover turkey meat)
- 1 cup carrots (I used about 10 baby carrots cut into 5 pieces each)
- 1 celery stalk (split lengthwise and diced)
- 1 small onion (halved and sliced or diced)
- 4 pints Turkey Stock (Chicken broth can be substituted)
- 1 cup Apple Cider
- salt
- pepper
- thyme
- apple pie spice
- 2 apples (peeled, cored, and cubed)
- 1-2 cup noodles (cooked, leftover)
- olive oil
Note
This is a very forgiving recipe and a good way to use up the last of the leftover turkey. Herbs and spices are to taste, add as much or as little as you like. I used two wings and a drumstick for this batch of soup with turkey stock. I had leftover noodles, but you could add new, uncooked noodles near the beginning of the cooking time and let them cook in the stock. This will add a little bit of thickening as well. You can add any leftover veggies you have as well.
Directions
| Step 1 | |
| Saute onion with a little salt in a little olive oil in the pan. | |
| Step 2 | |
| Add carrots and celery, stock and cider. | |
| Step 3 | |
| Add turkey, herbs, and spices. | |
| Step 4 | |
| After about 20 minutes, when carrots are tender, add apples. | |
| Step 5 | |
| Add cooked noodles 5-10 minutes prior to serving. Noodles only need to be heated through as they are pre-cooked. | |
These Are Just So D**n CUTE!
I wish I had room on my counter for them. I don’t have room on my counter. I wish I had more counterspace. A bigger kitchen, a bigger house… But I digress.
