TURKEY SOUP WITH ORZO AND SPINACH
Every year I look for new recipes to use up leftover turkey and I like to keep it diverse enough so that I don't get bored with eating turkey so much. Here is a soup that I found useful to use up some of the left over vegetables, cooked ham and turkey. Feel free to add cooked diced carrots, leftover peas or other leftover diced vegetables to the soup. It is full of flavour and makes eating yet more leftover turkey a joy! Feel free to substitute beans with 1-inch pieces of asparagus spears

LEMONY WHITE BEAN SOUP WITH TURKEY AND GREENS
Bright with lemon and herbs, and packed with hearty greens, this highly adaptable soup can be either light and brothy or thick and stewlike, depending on your preference. Smashing some of the beans to release their starch will give you a thicker soup that's almost worthy of a fork. To keep it on the brothy side, add a little more liquid and leave the beans intact. Either way, it's a warming, piquant, one-pot meal that's perfect for winter.

Steps:
- Heat a large pot over medium-high for a minute or so to warm it up. Add the oil and heat until it thins out, about 30 seconds. Add onion and carrot, and sauté until very soft and brown at the edges, 7 to 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, rinse the greens and pull the leaves off the stems. Tear or chop into bite-size pieces and set aside.
- When the onion is golden, add tomato paste, 3/4 teaspoon cumin and 1/8 teaspoon red-pepper flakes to the pot, and sauté until paste darkens, about 1 minute. Add turkey, garlic, ginger and 1 teaspoon salt, and sauté, breaking up the meat with your spoon, until turkey is browned in spots, 4 to 7 minutes.
- Add stock and beans, and bring to a simmer. Let simmer until the soup is thick and flavorful, adding more salt if needed, 15 to 25 minutes. If you like a thicker broth, you can smash some of the beans with the back of the spoon to release their starch. Or leave the beans whole for a brothier soup.
- Add the greens to the pot and simmer until they are very soft. This will take 5 to 10 minutes for most greens, but tough collard greens might take 15 minutes. (Add a little water if the broth gets too reduced.)
- Stir herbs and lemon juice into the pot, taste and add more salt, cumin and lemon until the broth is lively and bright-tasting. Serve topped with a drizzle of olive oil and more red-pepper flakes, if desired.

Steps:
- Place the beans into a large bowl, fill the bowl with water, and cover the bowl with a cloth. Allow to soak overnight. Drain and rinse the beans.
- Place the soaked beans, turkey legs, onion, and bay leaves into a large soup pot, cover with water, then bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer for 3 hours.

Serve in bowls and sprinkle each serving with about 1 teaspoon of Parmesan cheese.

Steps:
- In a large heavy saucepan, heat the oil over medium heat.
- Add onion and garlic, sauté for 4 minutes or until onion is soft.
- Add tomatoes, stock, sun-dried tomatoes and pepper flakes and bring to a boil.
- Add orzo and simmer about 12 minutes, or until pasta is cooked, stirring often to prevent sticking on the bottom.
- Add beans and heat through, about 5 minutes.
- Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve topped with as much parmesan cheese that you like!
- Now pick a cozy spot on the couch and enjoy!
Tips:
- Use a flavorful broth. A good-quality broth will make all the difference in the flavor of your soup. Look for a broth that is made with real bones and vegetables, and avoid broths that are made with artificial flavors or MSG.
- Don't overcook the vegetables. The vegetables should be cooked until they are tender, but not mushy. This will help to preserve their nutrients and flavor.
- Add the orzo and white beans towards the end of the cooking time. This will prevent them from becoming overcooked.
- Season the soup to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You may also want to add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dollop of sour cream.
- Serve the soup hot. Turkey soup is best served hot, with a side of crusty bread or crackers.
Conclusion:
Turkey soup with orzo and white beans is a delicious and hearty soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a great way to use up leftover turkey from Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner. This soup is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So experiment with different ingredients and seasonings until you find a combination that you love.
