3 cups Roasted Turkey (or chicken) Breast Meat, cooled and cubed AFTER COOKING!!! 2 medium Onions, quartered4 large stalks Celery, quartered3 large Carrots, sliced in thick slices1 large head Cauliflower, trimmed and cut into bite size pieces2 Tablespoons Olive Oil1 Tablespoon grill seasoning4 cup Fat Free Chicken Broth4 cup water
Directions
Season and Roast Turkey Breast along with the cut vegetables coated with olive oil on a baking pan in a 375 degree oven for 2 hours or until breast is completely cooked and veggies are tender. Allow to cool completely. Or you can use the meat from a store bought roasted chicken.


Remove turkey meat from bone. Slice some meat and retain for another meal. The recipe only needs about 3 cups of diced meat.


Place roasted or raw veggies (depending on if you roasted them or used store bought chicken) in a large soup pot. Add chicken broth, water and turkey meat.


Cover and bring to boil over high heat and reduce to a simmer. Allow to simmer for 60 -90 minutes stirring every 20 minutes gently breaking up cauliflower and other ingredients into very small pieces to thicken soup.

    didn't have cauliflower so put in lots of fresh mushrooms. Used homemade turkey broth so saved on sodium too. WONDERFUL, my kids ate all the leftovers. - 12/1/08

    I think it's too bland unless you add more seasoning. I added curry powder, cumin, and minced garlic, as well as some pepper. But the idea is a good one and the cauliflower is refreshing! - 11/28/10

    sounds good enough to try, although for us, I think I'd leave out the cauliflower - 11/30/08

    Turkey soup is tricky to season at the best of times. This one needs more seasoning. I'd add some of the drippings or add salt, pepper & garlic for sure!! - 11/30/08

    it was iffy sorry. I usually do not like to give reviews I don't know what to say. About this recipe I gave it some taste add pepper and sea salt if you can make your own broth. take out the grill seasoning. add garlic.
    So sorry to do that to you. - 11/29/08
