Turkey and Escarole Soup

One of the best things about winter is comfort food. My all-time favourite types of minestrone/ soups And here's another one! Ingredients For the Soup: 4 quarts watercarcass of turkey. 2 pounds escarole, washed. 2 cups pulled turkey meat 1 medium onion, chopped. 5 cloves garlic. 4 bay leaves. 3 stalks celery, chopped. 1 cup chopped carrots. 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped. 3 medium potatoes, cubed. 14 ounces crushed tomatoes. 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil,salt & pepper. Directions In a large pot add the extra virgin olive oil, the onion, the garlic, the carrots, the celery and bay leaves. Add salt and pepper as desired. Saute` all the ingredients for about 5 minutes or until the onion is translucent. Add the water, the potatoes and the crushed tomatoes. Add the turkey carcass and the turkey meat. Cover the pot and boil for  about 1 hour. Add the escarole. Once the escarole are cooked to your liking, add parsley and serve with some parmigiano cheese if you like. cookingwithnonna.com Foodie Fran's Notes: when soup is done, add parmesan cheese and 1 beaten egg. I found a big difference in taste!
