I don’t know about you, but after Thanksgiving I always have more turkey than I know what to do with.

The broth is extremely flavorful and creamy! Once you add fresh herbs, veggies, and thick egg noodles, it really comes together. Of course, we can’t forget the leftover Thanksgiving turkey you worked so hard on! Shred some up for juicy bits of goodness throughout this delicious homemade soup. From there, all you need to do is grab some saltine crackers and get ready for a cozy night in!
