Here's a recipe that I just "invented" and I thought I'd share it with you. We are all suffering from various stages of a cold that Joshua as "shared" with us, so soup right now is tasting Yum-O!!

Turkey Bean Soup

Cooked turkey (I used turkey wings from Wal-Mart)

Broth from cooking the turkey (about 2 cups+)

2 -15 oz cans of small white beans *undrained*

1 cooked strip of turkey bacon broken into pieces (optional)

Chopped onion

Minced garlic

Shredded baby carrots

Oregano (as much as you like -- I was very heavy with this spice)

Black Pepper (again, as much as you like - I was very heavy on this one too)

Kosher Salt (about 5 pinces of salt sprinkled round the soup)

Saute in butter chopped onion, minced garlic, shredded baby carrots - the amount you use is really up to you. In big soup pot put in turkey, broth, undrained beans, crumbled bacon, then sauted onion, garlic, carrots. Cook for about 20 minutes for beans to become more tender and serve. If you'd like, you can also add liquid smoke.  Enjoy.
