Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion finely diced
- 2 medium carrots sliced
- 2 stalks of celery diced
- 1 clove garlic pressed
- 2 cups leftover turkey
- 6 cups low-sodium stock
- 2 bay leaves
- 1/2 cup orzo
- 1 1/2 cups frozen peas
- Kosher salt and ground pepper to taste
- 2 tbsp chopped parsley
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a soup pot and add the onion, carrots, celery, and garlic. Sauté for 4-6 minutes.
- Add the leftover turkey, bay leaves, and broth. Simmer the soup for 30 minutes, then stir in the orzo and peas.
- Cook for 10 more minutes, or until the orzo is done.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning, then garnish with fresh chopped parsley.
Notes
- To store: Seal in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3-5 days. Rewarm leftovers in a large pot on the stovetop over medium-low heat, adding a bit more broth or water, as needed. You can also reheat this soup in the microwave until hot.
- To freeze: Place in a freezer-safe airtight container and freeze for up to 3 months. Be sure to label the soup with the date, so you know when it went into the freezer. Let thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
