My favorite season is finally here: fall! I’m so excited to drink copious amounts of hot chocolate and wear all my poufy sweaters and coats. I love the feeling of fall. The way the air smells and feels. I love cozying up to a blanket, or most of the time, my boyfriend.
One of my favorite dishes to make when it’s chilly outside is some sort of soup. I love a good steaming hot bowl of soup. I usually make more or less the same type of soup, plus or minus a few ingredients. It turns out to be the perfect bowl of joy on a chilly day. This one is delicious and easy to make. Just put how much you want of each ingredient instead of me telling you exact amounts.

- Turkey Legs
- Onion

Method

- Let the onion, garlic, turkey, and spices cook on a very low heat for 3 hours or more.

- Once it’s cooked for at least 3 hours, add chopped potato and sweet potato.

- Let it cook for 20 to 30 minutes.

What is your favorite type of soup to warm up to?
Very good post about Turkey Soup. Nice recipe. Looks yummy and delicious.
Thank you! It was super delicious. I hope you make it.
Soren, do you whisk the eggs with a fork and drizzle them into the soup? I’ve been making soup one night a week for the past month and want to continue to do so until the spring warm weather comes. This sounds like a delicious recipe to use leftover Thanksgiving turkey. Love the idea of the sweet potatoes. Thanks. P.S. I used to teach at YES and had your now 5th grade brother in my class.
Wow, that’s so cool! Nope, I don’t whisk the eggs. Just crack them in when the soup is boiling. Let me know how it turns out.
