Turkey Soup with Angel Hair Pasta

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup onions, chopped

• 6 cups broth, turkey stock or chicken broth

• 16 oz turkey, cooked, cut into 1-inch (2.5cm) pieces

• 1 cup carrot, chopped

• 1 cup red bell pepper, chopped

• 1 Tbs ginger root, minced

• 1 tsp soy sauce, low sodium

• 1 tsp Herbes de Provence

• 3 cups spinach leaves, fresh, chopped

• 4 oz angel hair pasta, broken in half, uncooked

Leftover turkey? Not a problem with this savory soup. If you have the time, make your own stock with the turkey carcass; otherwise, chicken broth will work.

Directions

• Spray a large soup pot with vegetable oil spray and sauté onions until translucent.
• Add turkey stock or chicken broth and bring to a boil.
• Add turkey, carrots, red pepper, ginger, soy sauce, and Herbes de Provence.
• Simmer uncovered until carrots are soft but not completely done.
• Add spinach and pasta to soup.
• Cook until pasta is al dente. Serve immediately.
