QuantityIngredient

1largeParsnip diced
1Onion chopped
3Tomatoes chopped
¼bunchCelery chopped
2Cloves garlic smashed
2Bay leaves
2Potatoes diced or sliced
1cupFrozen peas thawed
Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Place veges in large a pot and cover with water or chicken or turkey broth several inches over the top. Bring to a boil; cover and simmer until veges are tender and soft. Add ½ cup rice and about 3 to 4 cups of cooked chopped leftover turkey. Bring to a boil and reduce heat and gently simmer until rice is tender. If you prefer noodles I suggest to cook them separately and then add to soup so they dont get to limp. Season with salt and pepper. The parsnips add a very nice flavor.

Comment: Simple, satisfying and delicious. chicken easily replaces turkey.
