\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n

After the holidays when turkey\u00c2\u00a0abounds, why not take some of those tasty leftover turkey pieces and make a hearty soup. \u00c2\u00a0Here is a recipe\u00c2\u00a0I recently offered to bring over soup for friends who were not feeling well. Both husband and wife had caught a bug and they had been housebound for a few days. They needed something to nourish their bodies back to good health.\u00c2\u00a0 I had experimented with this recipe and shared it with them in hopes they would feel better soon.\u00c2\u00a0 As you can see, turkey can be an easy substitute for chicken.\u00c2\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

They ate the whole pot in one sitting and the next day asked for the recipe!\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Since then, I often make this for friends who need a little lift and it always seems to help.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

My wish for you today is that you never get sick. However, if you find yourself feeling sickly, enjoy this hearty soup and you will, hopefully, feel better fast.<\/span><\/p>\n
