It's the day after Thanksgiving, and you may have shared it with friends, family, meeting your in laws for the first time, or even just the two of you, chances are that you now have a ton of left overs. Instead of letting that turkey sit in your fridge until it begins to smell funny, whip it out now for an "After Thanksgiving Stew"?

A lot of us do a little over eating this time of year, and that can be a bother when it comes to keeping a healthy diet for the wedding to look your absolute best, and soup is a wonderful way of getting the nutrition you need without over doing it at meal time, especially with Christmas and New Years coming up.

After Thanksgiving Stew

The real difference between soup and stew is thickness, you can eat stew by itself as a meal, and soup, you would want to serve with something else

Take a mix of white and dark meat ( dark being the more tender )or left over ham, your choice
Slice carrots, celery, potatoes and set aside ( or use any other veggies )
Bring a pot of water to a boil on the stove
Put turkey meat in and potatoes and carrots ( as these are going to take the longest to cook )
Put a tablespoon or eye ball it of extra virgin olive oil ( When we add oil, the pot won't boil over )
Add your celery once your other ingredients have started to boil
I like to add chopped leeks, but that's just me
Now that everything is boiling, reduce the heat and let it simmer for another 30 - 40 minutes minutes on low with a lid

Cuddle with your honey, and then serve
