leftovers

What do you do when your family is done devouring this?

Why, you make turkey broth, of course!

Basically, break up your carcass, add it to 8 cups of water, a handful of carrots, onion, celery and dried thyme (s and p to taste). If you have any drippings or juices saved, add that, too. Simmer for 4 hours, then strain.

Use as you would chicken broth.

I need to start figuring out what soup and stew and pot pie recipes we're going to do, as last year I dawdled and suddenly ran out of winter months!

Well, we've made split pea soup thus far, using one quart of the gallon of turkey broth I made. Good, but I'm a little tired of eating it all week... the downside of soup recipes!
