Turkey-Pumpkin Soup

 

This should almost be called leftover soup instead. A bit of extra turkey, any vegetables that need a home and a fresh batch of turkey broth make this soup easy. For extra carbohydrates add in leftover rice, tiny pasta or serve with a slice of whole grain bread.

Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon olive oil, or turkey fat if available
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 4 cups broth
  • 2 cups pumpkin, roasted in chunks or other roasted squash
  • 1 cup turkey, torn apart
  • 1 tablespoon fresh herbs, parsley, sage, rosemary or thyme
  • 1 pinch salt, if your broth is unseasoned
  • 1 pinch black pepper, more or less to taste

Serving Size: 2 People



 

Preparation Instructions

Heat a soup pot over medium heat. Add in olive oil or a dollop (or a dollop of turkey fat) and saute your onions until just translucent.

Pour in the broth and bring up to a simmer over high heat. Reduce the heat slightly and add in the roasted pumpkin or other vegetables. Heat for about 5 minutes.

Stir in the turkey, fresh herbs and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Simmer for just a minute and serve when ready.
