Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays for so many reasons, not only because I’m so grateful for my family and friends but come on… THE FOOD!

I cooked a 16-pound turkey for us the weekend after Thanksgiving since we spent the holiday with friends and my favorite part is all the leftover turkey.

This soup is so easy to make and can be made on the stove or in your crockpot.

Let’s get started!

Ok- that’s the BEST rotisserie style chicken I’ve Ok- that’s the BEST rotisserie style chicken I’ve ever made! Best part? I made an entire meal in this oven that cooked at different times/ temps and finished at the same time 🙌🏼 This @Ninjakitchen Double Oven Pro Smart XL Countertop Oven & Air Fryer is the ultimate mom hack and has 12 other cooking functions as well! I love the two independent ovens and that I can cook full size meals for my family.
