Turkey Noodle Soup Recipe







Ingredients:

STOCK
1 All bones from roast turkey
7 cup Water
1 Bay leaf
1 Stalk celery, chopped
1 Onion, quartered
SOUP
1/4 cup Broken noodles, 1/2" pieces
1 Stalk celery & leaves, chop
1 Carrot, chopped
3 Green onions, sliced
1/3 cup Grated zucchini
1 tsp Dried basil
1 tsp Dried thyme
1 d Hot pepper sauce
Salt to taste
Freshly ground pepper


Instructions:

My note: Remove bones from turkey or chicken before serving and
refrigerate or freeze until you have time to prepare the soup. I like
to do it the next day, if possible, and make a batch of crackers
while the soup is cooking.

STOCK: In stockpot or large saucepan, combine bones, water, bay leaf,
celery and onion. (Skin and drippings may be included, if desired.)
Simmer, covered about 4 hours. Strain, reserving stock. Let bones
cool, pick out any meat and add to the stock.

SOUP: In stockpot or saucepan, bring stock to boil; add noodles and
simmer for 5 minutes. Add celery, carrot, green onions, zucchini,
basil and thyme. Simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in hot pepper sauce,
season with salt and pepper to taste. Makes about 4
1/2 cups.
