2 smoked turkey legs * - instead of this, we used smoked pork butt since we couldn't find smoked turkey legs. We diced it up before adding to the soup.4 cups chicken broth 4 cups water 2 teaspoons chicken bouillon granules 16 ounces frozen cauliflower 16 ounces frozen green beans Salt and pepper, to taste Onion, carrot and celery, optional (see my comments below)Put the turkey legs in a large soup pot. Add the broth, water and bouillon granules; bring to a boil. Cover and simmer until the meat is starting to fall off the bones, about an hour. Remove the drumsticks from the broth and set aside to cool. Meanwhile, add the cauliflower and green beans to the broth in the pot. Bring to a boil; cover and simmer until the vegetables are very tender, about 30 minutes. Puree the soup with an immersion blender until smooth. Remove the meat from the bones, cut into bite-size pieces and add to the soup. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper, to taste.Makes about 12 cups or eight 1 1/2 cup servings Can be frozen* Two smoked turkey legs will yield about 2 1/2-3 cups cut up meat.In a medium skillet, sauté in 1 tablespoon butter until very tender:1 small onion, diced 1 large carrot, diced 1 stalk celery, dicedAdd to the finished soup before adjusting the seasoning.
