EASY TURKEY NOODLES SOUP WITH CARCASS
So you probably know how good homemade chicken noodle soup is, but have you tried homemade turkey noodle soup? Well then you are in for something special. Because it is rich as it uses the whole carcus of the turkey!
If you have leftover gravy as well then you are going to want to add that in this soup too, trust me people will be begging for this recipe. It’s that good 🙂
I will typically make a BIG pot of turkey noodle soup the day after the holidays or the night of.
This way I am not wasting any food by utilizing the leftover turkey and gravy.
What I will do is fill a stock pot up with water and then I will put the carcass from my leftover Turkey inside.
Then all there is to do is simply boil the bird for a good 30 minutes or more.
Then I will remove the bird and skim away anything that looks less appealing and use the remaining broth as my soup stock.
Now there are plenty of ways to make this kind of soup, so I’m going to give you a few options here and let you decide what works best for you.
Really you cannot go wrong with making this soup, it’s healthy and also an excellent recipe to keep on hand after the holidays when you have leftover turkey.
When I talk options, I mean you can decide what type of noodle to place in the soup and vegetables.
For the noodles there are thick or thin, large and small, options.
So the type you use totally depends on what you prefer, however I do recommend using “egg noodles” because they are much lighter and work so much better in this kind of soup.
If you are feeling under the weather, feel free to add more garlic and onions to the stock as they carry antibacterial properties and have been proven to help people get better much faster.
I hope you give it a try and let me know what you think. Enjoy!
Note: If you have a leftoverturkey, then you can omit the chicken stock and simmer your turkey carcass for one hour in 8 cups of water, covered.
And use the turkey stock in replace if the chicken stock. Also use the leftover white turkey breast instead of buying turkey breasts as that works great too for this soup.

This Creamy Tuscan Gnocchi recipe contains no cream, so is on the lighter side and is absolutely delicious! So if you are looking for a decadent gnocchi dish minus the excess calories? Then you have come to the right place.
If you want to make it with cream and the vegetable stock you can as well. However, just be sure to half the vegetable stock so there is not to much liquid.
Also, be sure to sauté the sun dried tomatoes for a minimum of 2 minutes in vegetable stock, this really helps to bring out the flavors. Do this before adding back in the cooked gnocchi.
I have really started to appreciate Italian cuisines more so over the past few years, before I used to prefer Greek. I guess with time my tastes change and I’m so grateful to be able to dabble in all the amazing flavors that the World has to offer.
I could just eat this type of food everyday, nothing really compares to pillowy soft gnocchi.
And when it is tossed in a creamy sauce it’s so good, it will have you craving it often.

This recipe can be made vegan instead of just vegetarian as well.
However you would want to replace the sour cream with a vegan options of course.

These Beef Vermicelli noodles are super simple to make and are packed full of flavors from Thai food that you have come to expect and love.
Because everyone thinks i’m some kind of highly skilled Asian chef, when really im just following some basic steps to obtain this lovely dish.
This recipe is very easy to prepare and has red and yellow peppers along with bok choy in it among some other very important ingredients.
I used to order this often from my local Vietnamese restaurant, now I make it myself.
Today you can find many different types of ways to prepare this popular dish, this is my take on this delicious recipe.
I hope you give it a try and let me know what you and your family think.
Some people like to make this dish with shrimp, chicken or pork.
And others like it purely vegetarian, which is good also. So do what works best for you, after all it’s your meal.
You will want to start marinating the beef first and while its marinating you can then soak the vermicelli noodles.
Also preparing the vegetables around this time is perfect too. Since the actually cooking part takes less than 15 minutes.
To me this vegetable mixture is perfect, peppers and bok choy works so well.
The only traditional ingredient I didn’t add here was thai basil which you can top this dish with at the end if you’d like.
You can always substitute Thai basil leaves for regular fresh basil leaves.
I didn’t have any on hand today so I used cilantro instead which works good too.
Also I like to use Garlic chili sauce, which gives it the right amount of heat vs cutting up fresh whole thai red chilies.
They are just to hot for me to handle, and I always end up with burning hands.
I like to add 2 tbsp of this Garlic chili sauce to my recipe, however for this one I used 1 tbsp in the ingredients section because I’m sure more people prefer a milder dish.
ENJOY!

I will prepare this on the stove top in a large batch and eat it all day long.
You can make this soup with chicken breasts, or you can also pick up a Rotisserie chicken and shred the chicken off the bird and boil the carcassto get the benefits from a bone broth soup.
For this soup, I just used the breasts however both methods are good to fight off a cold.
Keep in mind if you are using a whole bird, you won’t need any extra chicken stock since you will be making a bone broth from the bird.
If you are using chicken breasts then you will definitely want to use chicken stock. I believe this soup can prevent colds and the flu and heal the body, because every time I prepare this soup I feel so much better the next day. See recipe below for all the ingredients and full instructions!!

HOW TO MAKE BOK CHOY SOUP
Start by slicing your mushrooms and chopping the baby bok choy into bite size pieces.
Next chop your onion, crush your garlic and peel and finely chop your your ginger root into tiny pieces. You can use powders if you prefer.
If you are using chicken breasts: dice them into bite size pieces and set aside.
If you are using a Rotisserie chicken: remove all the meat from your bird and then place the chicken carcass into a large stock pot and add cover with 8 cups of water. Simmer the carcass on low heat for 45 minutes turning a few times to allow the stock to develop.
Once the stock has developed, discard the carcass and place the remaining stock aside in a bowl.
Next, in your stock pot heat the olive oil and sauteed your onion, garlic and ginger for 2 minutes till fragrant.
Now, add in your shredded chicken, chicken stock along with all your bok choy
Add in all the spices and simmer on medium – low for 20 minutes.
Serve and allow your body to heal itself. Enjoy!
