TURKEY SOUP

Turkey Soup image

My daughter got this recipe from her husband's mother. As in many households, our turkey gets picked over for a few days after the holidays. This soup is especially good on cold winter nights when it's snowing...which happens a lot where I live! -Carol Brethauer, Denver, Colorado
