Janet,Carol makes her soup the way I make mine.
But, here are a couple of recipes I have that will help. This is pretty much
how I make mine, But I don't put tomatoes in, but I guess you could if you
wanted too.
Good luck.
Turkey Stock
The first step is to make the stock, which should get started right after
dinner.
Making Stock
1) Remove all the usable turkey meat from the turkey carcass to save for
making sandwiches later or for adding to the soup.
2) Put the leftover bones and skin into a large stock pot and cover with
water. Add any drippings that weren't used to make gravy, any veggies like
celery,
onion, or garlic (not stuffing) that had been in the cavity of the turkey,
and any giblets (except liver) that haven't been used already.
3) Add salt and pepper, about 1 tsp of salt, 1/2 tsp of pepper. It sort of
depends on how big your turkey is. You can always add salt to the soup
later.
4) Bring to a boil and reduce heat to bring the stock to a high simmer.
5) Simmer uncovered at least 4 hours, occasionally skimming off the foam
that comes to the surface. If you have started this soup in the evening,
after
4 hours of simmering, turn off the heat, cover, and leave on the stove for
the night. In the morning, turn the heat back on and bring to a high simmer
for at least 10 minutes.
6) Remove the bones and strain the stock.
7) If making stock for future use in soup you may want to reduce the stock
by simmering a few hours longer to make it more concentrated and easier to
store.
Making the Turkey Soup
Prepare the turkey soup much as you would a chicken soup. With your stock
already made, add chopped carrots, onions, and celery in equal parts. Add
some
parsley, a couple cloves of garlic. You can add rice or noodles (or not if
you want the low carb version). Take some of the remaining turkey meat you
reserved
earlier, shred it into bite sized pieces and add to the soup. You may also
want to add some chopped tomatoes, either fresh or canned. Add seasoning -
poultry
seasoning, sage, thyme, marjoram and/or a bouillon cube. Add salt and
pepper to taste.
Later.

Boiled the turkey carcass but no meat to throw in for the traditional
turkey
soup stew.
Looking for other ideas for usage of the good tasty broth.
