Turkey Frame Soup Day 38

Lunch
Chicken Won Ton Soup- from a can.
Dinner
Turkey Frame Soup- my favorite way to use up every bit of a turkey

Turkey Frame Soup
1  turkey frame, leave some meat on it
12 cups water
1 onion, chopped
1 16 oz. can diced tomatoes
1 tablespoon instant chicken bouillon granules
1 ½ teaspoons dried Italian seasoning
adobo, to taste
Pepper, to taste
4 cups of fresh vegetables (great time to use up the extra celery, carrots and any other vegetables leftover from dinner)
1 ½ cup uncooked medium noodles

Break turkey frame so it will fit in a large stock pot  with water, onion and salt. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Cover; simmer for 1 ½ hours. Remove turkey bones taking off any meat and reserving to go back into the soup. Discard bones. Strain broth; discard solids. Return broth to stock pot. Stir in cut-up turkey meat, undrained tomatoes, bouillon granules, and seasonings. Stir in fresh vegetables. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 45 minutes. Stir in uncooked noodles, simmer, uncovered, 8 to 10 minutes or until noodles are done. Serve or freeze.
