This recipe is so economical. I was able to stretch one more meal out of this turkey by using the carcass and making this awesome soup (So important in these hard economic times) I made this exactly as stated and it turned out great, no changes necessary. I served this with leftover rolls from Thanksgiving and there will be enough soup leftover to feed lunch to my family of four tomorrow. 5 stars!

Good recipe! Try substituting the rice with barley! Makes it even better!

I hate dark meat, but I didn't want to throw it away from the Thanksgiving turkey. My mom-in-law lives with us, and she loves dark meat. So I decided to make some turkey soup, even though I never had done so before. I tasted it, and it's actually really good. The half and half helped me a lot. I lvoe creamy soup. I used cornstarch instead of flour, and I probably only used about 1/2 cup or a little less. I also sauteed 2 tsps of minced garlic with the vegetables. Instead of salt I used garlic salt, and I added parsely flakes. I also used organic brown basmati rice. Thanks for the recipe!!!

This soup was great to use up some after-thanksgiving turkey remains. I took some other reccomendations from prior reviews and added the following: 3 bay leaves to the stock while simmering the carcass, substituted skim milk for half the cream, added an extra carrot and an extra celery, substituted 1/4 cup olive oil for half the butter, and added 1/2 tsp of sage during the last 30 minutes of simmering. This recipe has to be one of the heartiest soups I've ever eaten (my wife could only finish 3/4 of a bowl), and will definitely be a post-holiday staple for my family.

My whole family really enjoyed this soup. I substituted noodles for rice since I knew my girls would like it better. I also had to add more broth--which I had plenty of. Really tasty. My teenager, who is finicky, really liked it. She said it tasted like "a turkey pot pie, but better." Cool. :) No particular reason I didn't mark it with 5 stars--just a solid recipe, no subtle flavors that would make it "gourmet"--just good! Definitely a keeper. I'll use this one again.

Restaurant quality! This is THE best! I added a bay leaf when simmering the carcass. Cut the butter in half and added a little olive oil to cook the vegetables (used 1 onion, not 3). Used only 2 quarts of broth instead of 3 (kept the rest for use in other recipes) and added extra seasoning including an extra tsp of salt, thyme, sage. Simmered for several hours using wild rice. Wonderful!

I used the turkey dripping plus some extra broth, but the soup came out so oily and salty. I actually had to throw it out...you may need to make some modification for it to come out well. Best of luck!

This was really good. It tasted like the filling of a turkey pot pie. I made this a few days after Thanksgiving so I didn't have the turkey carcass lying around so I used chicken broth out of a can. I halved the recipe and used 2 cans of chicken broth plus one cup of water with a chicken boullion cube. Added some leftover corn and this was delicious. Thanks for a great way to use up all that turkey!

I don't think a cup of flour is even necessary. I just made this and all I can taste is too much flour.

Excellent soup - Used only 1 stick of butter and a little more than 1/2 cup of flour. I boiled 2 diced potatoes and 1 cup of rice separately and added after soup had cooled down. This way you end up with soup instead of goop.

This is a terrific (if not the healthiest soup option...) recipe! I didn't measure out any liquid from what I used to get the turkey meat off the bones. I just added more brown rice to soak up the extra liquid. There were onions from the cooked turkey already, and I only had one in the fridge, so one onion, only a few baby carrots (not a huge fan of carrots - makes soups too sweet for me), 2 cups brown rice, 1/2 a bag of frozen peas, and 1/2 a bag of frozen chopped broccoli. 1 can of condensed milk. I used a vegetable flavor cube (didn't have granules), quite a bit of black pepper, a 'southern style blend' spice mix and another garlic-based spice blend (didn't have any poultry spice or celery salt) and used quite a bit of Beau Monde Seasoning. I put what I had left of the stuffing in there (about 1 cup), and didn't put a whole lot of salt -- better under salted for folks to add their own is my soup-making motto. I let it cook and simmer all day -- and YUMMY!! DH tasted it and thought it was good, and he's really picky. Thank You For this different take on a favorite Holiday Leftover!!

This is THE BEST soup. I made a few modifications and it was a big hit with all my holiday company. I used 1/2 cup half & half and the rest was skim milk = still rich and tasty. I used "better than bouillion chicken soup base" so I"m sure that increased the flavor. This recipe is a keeper. Excellent !!
