TURKEY TORTELLINI SOUP



Turkey Tortellini Soup image

A leftover turkey carcass is used to make a delicious broth, which is then used to make a warming soup akin to the Italian favorite tortellini en brodo. The recipe is written for 1 pound of carcass -- for each additional pound, double the aromatic ingredients (carrot, onion, celery, parsley and peppercorns; do not add more bay leaves) used to enhance the broth's flavor. For more tortellini, you will need about 8 cups turkey broth for every 9 ounces of tortellini.

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 coarsely chopped large carrot
1 coarsely chopped onion
1 coarsely chopped celery stalk
A few sprigs fresh flat-leaf parsley
5 whole black peppercorns
1 bay leaf
1 pound leftover turkey carcass, cut up into smaller pieces
Coarse salt
1 packed cup baby-spinach leaves
2 cups shredded leftover turkey meat

Steps:

  • In a large stockpot, combine carrot, onion, celery, parsley, peppercorns, and bay leaf. Add the turkey carcass and enough water to fully cover. Bring to a gentle simmer for at least 1 hour and up to 2 1/2 hours for full flavor. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve; discard solids and de-grease. (Broth may be refrigerated, covered, for up to a week.)

  • Meanwhile, as the turkey broth comes to a boil, cook tortellini according to package instructions in a separate pot. Drain, and add to turkey broth just before serving.

Stir to combine and serve topped with fresh grated Parmigiano Reggiano.

TURKEY & TORTELLINI SOUP



Turkey & Tortellini Soup image

This is a recipe I came up with to use the left over turkey from Thanksgiving. You can certainly substitute cooked chicken for the turkey. I wanted to try and keep it "lower calorie" than a cream based soup so obviously I couldn't use Half & Half or Heavy Whipping Cream, but I wanted a soup with a little more than a "broth" type consistency so I opted to make a blonde roux and it worked perfectly. Update 1/1/07: I made this soup today but decided to add 2 packages of dry ranch salad dressing mix just to see how it would turn out. I really like the extra flavor it adds and will make it this way from now on.

TURKEY TORTELLINI SOUP



TURKEY TORTELLINI SOUP image

THIS IS A HIT WITH MY STUDENTS. ITS SIMPLE AND COOKS UP IN JUST UNDER A HOUR. BUT LET IT SIMMER AS LONG AS YOU CAN THE LONGER IS SIMMERS THE BETTER THE TASTE. JUST ADD THE TORTELLINI ABOUT 20 MINUTES BEFORE SERVING. YOU DON'T WANT THEM GOING TO MUSH ON YOU.

Time 2h30m

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 large turkey breast cooked and shredded(cook to taste)
YOU CAN USE CHICKEN TOO IF YOU DON'T WANT TURKEY. NO MEAT AT ALL. MEATBALLS WORKS WELL WITH THIS SOUP AS WELL.
IF YOU USE CHICKEN INCREASE TO 4 BREAST. OR MEATBALLS TO HALF OF A LARGE BAG STILL FROZEN.
1 large yellow squash diced
1 large zucchini squash diced
2 large cloves of garlic sliced
3 slice celery stalks diced
1/2 large bag of cheese tortellini
1 can(s) chicken stock. or veggie stock if you don't want meat.

1/8 tsp black pepper,sea salt,oregano,basil, italian seasoning,onion powder,
1 small diced tomato
1 small package frozen peas(optional)
1 c water

Steps:

  • 1. IN SLOW COOKER OR ON THE STOVE IN A LARGE POT ADD ALL THE VEGGIES,WATER AND SEASONINGS,STOCK AND SOUP. INCLUDING THE RICE. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO HEAT THE RICE ITS ALREADY COOKED. JUST SPOON IT INTO THE PAN. THE RICE IS IN A SMALL MICROWAVABLE CONTAINER AND IS SINGLE SERVING I USE JUST ONE TO HELP THICKEN UP THE STOCK. THIS IS OPTIONAL.
  • 2. BRING TO SLOW BOIL ON STOVE OR COOK ON HI IN SLOW COOKER FOR TEN MINUTES. ADD MEAT IF YOU SO CHOOSE AND LOWER TEMP TO LOW ON SLOW COOKER OR MED ON STOVE JUST LET IT SET FOR ABOUT TWO HOURS. STIRRING OCCASIONALLY. WE DID ABOUT 135 MILES WITH THE SOUP JUST SIMMERING IN THE POT. DROVE US NUTS.
  • 3. ABOUT 20 MINUTES BEFORE READY TO SERVE ADD THE CHEESE TORTELLINI. RAISE TEMP TO BRING TO VERY SLOW BOIL. COOK FOR TWENTY MINUTES TILL TORTELLINI ARE HEAT ALL THE WAY THRU. THIS MAY TAKE A LITTLE LONGER IF FROZEN.STIRRING CONSTANTLY NOT TO BURN. SOUP WILL BE THICK. IF YOU WANT A THINNER STOCK ADD MORE STOCK OR WATER.
  • 4. MY STUDENTS LOVE THIS WHEN I MAKE IT ON THE TRUCK. ITS A GREAT WINTER SOUP AND IS FILLING AND WARMING. WE FOUND IT TO BE EVEN BETTER THE NEXT DAY WHEN COMPLETELY COOLED AND REHEATED.
