This is a very good soup you can make either with chicken or turkey! Ingredients:
2 teaspoons olives or 2 teaspoons vegetable oil |
2 leeks, cleaned and chopped |
2 carrots, peeled and chopped |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1 stalk celery, chopped |
3 -4 cups leftover cooked turkey (shredded or chopped) |
2 -3 bay leaves |
2 teaspoons dried thyme |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper |
8 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth |
6 ounces uncooked egg noodles |
1 cup frozen green pea |
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves |
Directions:
1. Heat oil in a large stock pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add leeks, carrots, garlic, and celery and saute 4 minutes, until soft. Add turkey, bay leaves, thyme, salt, and black pepper and stir to mix well. Add chicken broth and bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, partially cover and simmer 10 minutes.
2. Return mixture to a boil and add egg noodles. Cook 10 minutes, until egg noodles are just tender. Stir in peas and cook until peas are just heated through, about 1 minute.
3. Remove from heat, discard bay leaves and stir in parsley.
