Some recipes for turkey noodle soup feel almost more complicated than the Thanksgiving turkey itself. This one is streamlined, requiring just a few minutes of sautéing, and then everything boils together in the same pot (no need to cook the noodles separately). Aside from the leftover turkey and green beans, there’s a good chance that you’ll have most of the other ingredients on hand from prepping for your Turkey Day feast—onion, celery, carrots, thyme, and bay leaves. The whole-wheat noodles hold up and reheat well, so leftovers are great.
