How to Make Turkey Noodle Soup
There is nothing like homemade soup with big chunky vegetables and tender egg noodles. Using homemade Thanksgiving Turkey Stock, this soup comes together in no time at all.
This recipe can also be made with cooked or shredded chicken and chicken stock if you prefer homemade Chicken Noodle Soup!
Although the stock is flavorful on it’s own, a good hearty homemade soup needs a few vegetables to make it sing. Begin by heating 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat in a soup pot or a dutch oven.
Once it’s hot, add chopped onion, carrots, celery, minced garlic, a bay leaf and dried thyme.
Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5-6 minutes until the veggies start to soften a bit.
Add the turkey stock to the soup pot and raise the heat to medium-high. Bring to a boil.
Add the wide egg noodles, cook and stir for about 5 minutes until the noodles are tender.
Fold in the turkey, kosher salt and pepper, stir to combine and then simmer until heated through.
The turkey noodle soup is ready to eat or freeze. Enjoy!
