Turkey soup is not on our holiday leftover recipe list but this soup is really delicious! Family gave it a rave review. I used orzo as suggested but the egg noodle suggestion from sissiemom sounds really good - I think the sweet potato is the secret to this being sooo good tasting!

This is a simple and easy recipe to make. After I cook the turkey, I then cut up the pieces I need for soup and then freeze the turkey for later. I change the recipe to fit my needs and wants. I use egg noodles and my daughter loves it.
