Leftover Turkey Recipes: Random Snow Day Soups

Posted by Carla Marie Boulianne Dec 20, 2008

This gourmet organic soup recipes all emerged after snowy holiday feasts when our family couldn't reach the store due to impassable roads. Luckily, our refrigerator is usually well-stocked with organic produce and our cupboards overflow with organic herbs and spices. Throw in some Thanksgiving or Christmas Dinner turkey leftovers and a little cooking creativity, and you have:

"French Green Lentil Soup With Leftover Turkey"

"Leftover Turkey Recipes: Turkey Noodle (Gnocchi) Soup"

"Crimini Mushrooms Minestrone"

The Crimini Mushroom Minestrone recipe doesn't list leftover turkey as an ingredient, but any organic meat makes a wonderful addition. Don't be scared unusual ingredients like Dr. Shultze's SuperFood, anchovies, and Maine Coast Sea Vegetables dulse. It is really quite delicious and even young children will ask for seconds of this gourmet organic soup recipe.

Tip: Organic free-range turkey can be tougher than conventional birds. Consider brining free-range turkey for succulent results.
