One of the best ways to use up a turkey carcass is to make turkey carcass soup. Here's a simple recipe to make turkey soup from scratch:

  1. Break down the roast turkey and remove all the meat from the bones.
  2. Place the turkey carcass in a large stock pot and add seasonings such as onion, carrots, celery, salt, peppercorns, bay leaves, and fresh parsley.
  3. Cover the turkey with water and simmer for about 2 hours to make a rich and flavorful stock.
  4. Strain the stock and reserve it for the soup.
  5. Add diced carrots, celery, bay leaf, thyme, and shredded turkey to the stock and simmer until the vegetables are tender.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover turkey and is loaded with healthy vegetables, lean turkey meat, and homemade broth
