We really enjoyed this. Made some changes...no carrots or snow peas so used a can of green beans. Spices were basil, thyme, and rosemary, with a few splashes of poultry seasoning, a little paprika, pepper, and just a slight amount of salt (really didn't need the latter). Used a cream of mushroom with roasted garlic soup (omitted the garlic). Because I had so much turkey to use up, it was too thick so added a second soup can of milk and a second teaspoon of "Better than Bouillon" chicken flavored. Enjoyed with a turkey sandwich for a hearty supper. Very nice consistency. Thanks, CookieMomster!
