SERVES:
4-6
INGREDIENTS:
4 Tbs butter
1 cup diced onion
1 cup diced celery
1 cup peeled diced carrot
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups turkey or chicken broth
1/2 cup half and half
3-4 cups diced cooked turkey meat
1 cup frozen peas (or 1 cup chopped leftover green bean casserole)
salt and pepper to taste
PROCEDURE:
Melt 4 Tbs butter in a large heavy bottomed soup pot and saute 1 cup each of diced onion, diced celery and diced peeled carrot to soften.
At that point, sprinkle in 1/4 cup all-purpose flour and stir that in and cook it along for a minute or two.
Then add 2 cups of turkey stock and 1/2 cup half and half and bring it up to a simmer.
This is going to thicken up as it comes to a simmer and then turn the heat down a bit and add 3 - 4 cups of cubed cooked turkey meat and 1 cup of frozen peas or even some chopped leftover green bean casserole if you have it.
Let everything heat through and season it with salt and pepper to taste.
HINTS:
Serve with homemade biscuits or over county toast.
