TURKEY CACCIATORE SOUP

Thoughts For Leftover Turkey…

It was a bit of a frigid weekend in Marin after Thanksgiving. I opted to skip the Turkey Sandwich between two proper pieces of white bread with mayonnaise and made a pot of soup with my left

over turkey. Definitely comfort food and a change up from Turkey Noodle Soup,

Love leftover Turkey and there are so many ways to use it.

Chop up one onion, red pepper, yellow pepper, bunch of carrots and 8 oz of mushroom.

Toss all the vegetables into a large Dutch Oven.

Chop up 4 garlic cloves and toss into the pot.

Pour in some olive oil.

Salt & Pepper and assorted herbs ( parsley, basil, oregano, thyme) 

into the pot and sautéed for about 8 minutes.

Pour in 2 cans of crushed fire roasted tomatoes.

Two cups of turkey or chicken broth.

Yes I know you will want to drink this glass of white wine but…

pour it into the pot and fill the glass up again

for you :)

Slice up your leftover dark and white turkey meat

into bite size pieces.

The Turkey Joins The Party In The Pot :)

Chop up a handful of pitted Kalamata olive.

Olives welcome to the party. Drop in a few sage leaves or bay leaves.

Bring the soup to a boil. Turn heat down and simmer for about half hour.

Smells so amazing!

Grab a ladle and dig in.

Add a little parmesan cheese on top. 

Red Wine & White Wine is so right with

 Turkey Cacciatore Soup!

Please don't feel bound to measurements or, indeed, the additional ingredients.

Enjoy!
