Turkey Noodle Soup

I don't know what the weather has been like for you, but it has gotten down right FRIGID here! The kind of weather that makes you feel like your flesh might freeze solid. It makes a VERy unpleasant walk to work, let me tell you.

I find that nothing warms me up quite like a nice hot bowl of soup. And, to be honest, I've been on a little bit of a soup craze lately. There are so many great soup recipes out there and I find that they alway make so much that there are always tons of leftovers.

You just can't beat that!

Anyways, I hope you enjoy this delicious and healthy soup to get you through the cold winter months! I know I will :)
