CREAMY TURKEY SOUP
My mother always prepared a holiday turkey much larger than our family could ever eat in one meal so there'd be plenty of leftovers. That's one tradition I've kept up. This hearty soup uses a lot of turkey and is great after watching football games and raking leaves. -Kathleen Harris, Galesburg, Illinois

SOUPLANTATION'S CREAMY HERBED TURKEY SOUP
Found this recipe on the Souplantation/Sweet Tomatoes blog. This makes a BIG pot of soup! Update: After making this a few times, we made some changes. We skip step one, omitting those vegetables. We only use one cup on onions in step two, and halve the butter, flour and all remaining ingredients. Also, I do not puree the soup as stated in step three. This still makes more soup than the three of us can eat in one meal, plus it's a lot less prep work. I've also used half and half or milk in place of the heavy cream with very little difference in the taste.

Steps:
- In a medium sized pot add 4 cups of water and celery and carrots. Cook for approximately 10 - 12 minutes over a medium high heat. Drain carrots and celery and set aside.
- Start soup by making the roux, you will need to melt 1/2 cup butter in a large stock pot over medium heat. Add onions to the melted butter, and cook onions until they are transparent. When onions are transparent add 3/4 cup of flour. Reduce heat to a medium-low heat and cook flour mixture for 1 to 2 minutes. The color should darken and this roux should smell like cooked pie crust. Turn heat up to a medium heat, and add 1 cup of turkey stock to mixture. Stir until thickened. Add another cup of turkey stock to flour mixture, stir until thickened. You may need to raise the heat just slightly to ensure rapid thickening. Add half of remaining stock, stir until thickened, and then add the remaining turkey stock.
