There are so many ways to use up leftover turkey, the first being to simply warm it up and eat it the way you did on Thanksgiving.

This soup is another quick way to use up some of those leftovers. It’s both simple to prepare and quick to eat, plus it travels well if you have a thermos or insulated container.

How To Make All Soup

Soups are pretty straight forward. There’s pretty much no way to really screw it up. Just throw some meat and vegetables in a pot, along with some homemade bone broth. Allow enough time to let the meat & veggies cook or at least come to the same temperature on the stove top. Add sea salt and any herbs or seasonings that you’d like.

Then determine whether you want your soup to be creamed or not. If you do, transfer that mixture in batches to a blender. Or even simpler, if you own an immersion blender just stick that stick in the pot you cooked everything in and blend blend blend until smooth.

If you don’t mind lumps of vegetables and meat in your liquid, then this soup is right up your alley!

Leftover Meat Makes It Simple

Now that there is loads of leftover turkey in our fridge, I could head to the kitchen right now and whip up a quick batch of this soup, using turkey instead of waiting for the chicken to cook, and call it a night.

When the temps start getting colder in Chicago, that’s when I start whipping out the bone broth and soup recipes. So far those temps haven’t shown their ugly head but now I’ve got you covered with this paleo soup, when the cold winds come knocking on your door.

Carrot Ginger Roasted Chicken Soup

Yield: 4-6 Servings

Ingredients

  • 1lb chicken legs or leftover cooked turkey
  • coarse ground sea salt, to taste
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, sliced
  • 6 carrots, peeled and sliced
  • 3 cups chicken or beef broth
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • 1-inch fresh ginger, peeled

Directions

  1. If you're making chicken soup, preheat the oven to 375°F. If you're using leftover cooked turkey from Thanksgiving, skip ahead to step 3.
  2. Add chicken legs to a cast-iron skillet, season with sea salt and transfer to the oven. Roast chicken for 45 minutes to an hour or until internal temperature of the chicken legs reads 165°F.
  3. In the 3-quart cast iron pot over medium heat, add largely chopped onion and sliced garlic. Stir and cook for 3-5 minutes then add carrots. Cook for additional 7-10 minutes or until carrots start to get soft.
  4. Add beef broth, water, fresh rosemary removed from the threads and fresh ginger. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until chicken is done in the oven.
  5. Remove the skillet holding the chicken from the oven. Using a fork and knife, remove chicken from the bones and transfer to the pot. Stir chicken in and allow to simmer a few minutes just to combine the chicken with everything else.
  6. If you're not a fan of a chunk of ginger in a single scoop of soup, remove the ginger knob and discard. Ladle soup into bowls and serve.
  7. Enjoy! :)
