Sopa De Calabacin Y Guajolote (Zucchini and Turkey Soup) image

When my mom and I were cleaning out one of her kitchen cabinets, we found a box of recipes that she had clipped from newspapers and magazines. This one came from an article in the Houston Post (no longer in circulation), October 1989. The article was about traditional Mexican soup dishes and contained several wonderful and authentic recipes. Great for using turkey stock made from Thanksgiving leftovers, but I'm sure it would work with chicken stock too.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover turkey. It's also a great make-ahead meal.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my soup didn't turn out as creamy as the picture. It was more like a brothy soup.

This soup is way too thick for my taste. I had to add a lot of water to thin it out.

I made this soup exactly as the recipe said, but it turned out bland. I had to add a lot of salt and pepper to make it taste good.

I'm not a big fan of zucchini, but I really enjoyed this soup. The turkey and the broth were so flavorful that I didn't even notice the zucchini.

This soup was a hit with my family! The zucchini and turkey were a great combination, and the broth was flavorful and comforting. I'll definitely be making this again.
