Quick and Easy Curried Turkey Soup created by loof751

This soup is a great way to use up leftover turkey after Thanksgiving. The curry powder lends a Middle Eastern flair to this chunky winter soup. Add more or less curry powder to suit your tastes.

Fabulous! I should have made this earlier, but I was turkeyed out.....had to stop for some beef and pork! Made this tonight and the smell while cooking is amazing, and it tastes wonderful. I did let it cook a bit longer to let the curry flavor develop a bit, but it was fine at the time specified in the recipe. Made for your win in Football tag. Thanks for sharing a wonderful recipe that will be repeated.

Oh boy this is just delicious! I used leftover chicken instead of turkey and fat-free half-and-half, otherwise made as directed. Full of veggies and full of flavor - just loved this - thanks for sharing the recipe!
