Post Thanksgiving Turkey Soup

Take the turkey carcass and place in large stock pot. Barely cover with water. Add a small sliced carrot, a chopped onion, a few celery leaves, 2 tsp salt, and a couple of bay leaves. Cover and simmer for 2-3 hours. Strain broth. If you feel it's too watery, you can add in a couple cans of chicken broth. To turkey broth add:

1 cup diced potatoes

1 cup chopped carrots

1 cup chopped celery

1/2 cup chopped onion

1 tsp salt and pepper

Bring to a boil and simmer for 30 minutes. Add 2 cups turkey meat, 1 cup frozen peas and 1 cup uncooked pasta. Cover and simmer for additional 20-30 minutes or until pasta is tender.
