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!
