For other ways to use up leftover turkey, look at these homemade turkey soup and turkey pot pie soup recipes.
Mushrooms: Adds earthy richness and umami depth. Onion: Contributes sweet undertones. Garlic: For a savory note. Carrots: Adds natural sweetness and a vibrant color. Celery: Brings a refreshing note to the base of the soup. Potato: Adds creaminess when blended with the cashews (if you have leftover mashed potato from Thanksgiving, you can sub it in here!) Dried thyme: Contributes a herbaceous aroma. Homemade turkey stock: You can also substitute for chicken. Turkey meat: Adds protein for a hearty, satisfying soup. Cashews: When blended, cashews contribute a nutty creaminess. Salt and pepper: To balance the other flavors. Olive oil: To sauté the vegetables.

This works just the same with using chicken bones to make chicken broth. No duo is more dynamic than soup and grilled cheese – serve it with a twist with this sriracha apple grilled cheese! Other hearty sides include these mashed potato cakes, cheese bread bites, or gougeres. For a fresh side, serve alongside this asparagus salad, kale apple salad, or arugula wild rice salad.
