Turkey Soup

Last night I turned the remaining turkey into turkey soup.  I filled a large stock pot with the turkey breast and covered it with water.  Then I added: chopped celery, carrots, and onions, as well as garlic, fresh thyme and sage, bay leaves, salt and pepper, poultry seasoning, and the leftover Thanksgiving gravy and beef broth.  I brought the soup to a boil and then reduced the heat to a simmer.  After an hour and a half, the meat fell right off the bones (which I removed). 

Tonight we had turkey soup and grilled cheese sandwiches - a perfect dinner for a rainy Friday night.
