I didn't have the 1 & 1/2 lbs. of cooked turkey and used whatever I could pick off of the bone. Hubby loves meaty meals, but didn't complain one bit. He loved it. Dumplings are a nice change with the fresh parsley.

I made this soup last week. The soup was great!I don't know what I did to the dumplings but they didn't turn out or look good so I made another type dumpling and they were great. I will definitely make this again.

This is the best tasting turkey soup I have ever had! It is somewhat time consuming to make, but well worth it! I have gotten raves from everyone who has tried it. I have not attempted the dumplings yet - I have added barley instead. This is quick becomming one of my favorite meals to make! Thanks for the recipe!

I've been making turkey soup for 40 years and until today I would have said mine was better. Not anymore! This was fantastic, it made me think of my childhood and mum's chicken and dumplings. Don't change a thing it is great soup just as it is. Thanks Christine for teaching an old bird new tricks.

Soup doesn't get any better than this and being that the "frost was on the pumpkin" this morning here in N.J., my family couldn't have wanted for anything more perfect then this wonderful comfort food. Using a leftover turkey or chicken carcass definitely gives soup the best flavor possible. I made my stock the day before so that I could skim off the fat. I made matzo balls in lieu of the dumplings as my kids are totally addicted to them. Thanks Christine!

Yum. My darling husband, (some like to refer to him as "Mr. Clean" because he's so tidy) was being helpful by cleaning up and threw out the turkey carcus. I did however cut the recipe in 1/2 & used the leg & wings that were left and it turned out fine. I ran out of time so I didn't get to add the dumplings but I did add the parsley along with some Barilla Pipette pasta (somewhat like a macaroni noodle, a "new shape"). Very tasty, Thanks Christine!

I made this soup yesterday and it turned out fantastic. I'm not crazy about dumpling's, so I used homemade pasta instead. The noodles just absorb the flavor of the soup compared to store bought noodles. Very time consuming recipe, but worth every minute.
