Are you roasting a turkey for Christmas this year? What do you do when you are tired of eating left over turkey? My mom used to make the most delicious turkey soup with the left overs and it was always my favorite homemade soup – so fresh and flavorful!

Leave me a comment below and let me know what you enjoyed the best.
