Expert Tips

If you prefer, substitute 3 cups frozen egg noodles (from a 16-ounce bag) for the spaetzle.

Spaetzle are tiny egg noodles with a rich flavor that are firm enough to use in soup.

This was incredibly easy and a yummy soup! I chopped up half a red bell pepper and also put in the leftover creamed corn from Thanksgiving and it was super. I will make this every year with my leftover turkey!

Made this recipe with leftover smoked turkey from Thanksgiving. I also used potato gnocci instead of spaetzle. The smoke flavor from the turkey really came out. This is a very easy, hearty soup. It is a great next day left over meal for Thanksgiving and my family looks forward to it now.
