Every year I look for new recipes to use up leftover turkey and I like to keep it diverse enough so that I don't get bored with eating turkey so much. Here is a soup that I found useful to use up some of the left over vegetables, cooked ham and turkey. Feel free to add cooked diced carrots, leftover peas or other leftover diced vegetables to the soup. It is full of flavour and makes eating yet more leftover turkey a joy! Feel free to substitute beans with 1-inch pieces of asparagus spears Ingredients:
2 (28 ounce) boxes vegetable broth |
1 cup orzo pasta, dry |
1 cup frozen green beans, chopped |
1 cup frozen yellow beans, chopped |
3 cups fresh spinach, chopped |
1 1/2 cups tomatoes, chopped |
1 1/2 cups turkey, cooked and diced |
1/3 cup ham, cooked and cubed |
salt |
ground pepper |
Directions:
1. Bring broth to a boil. Add uncooked orzo and return to a boil. Simmer, uncovered for 5 minutes. Add beans and simmer for another 3 minutes. Add spinach, tomato, ham and turkey. Heat through and season to taste with salt and pepper.
