Usually the day after Thanksgiving, we'll have turkey sandwiches, which we did.  Then, the remaining leftovers will be used in some basic turkey noodle soup. I'm really tired of that and didn't feel like doing it this year, so I was on a mission to find some different soup recipes. Here are my top three!

• I love Tortilla Soup and Chicken Enchilada Soup, so this Creamy Mexican Turkey Soup from The Recipe Girl is right up my alley!

• This Fiesta Turkey Soup from Southern Living looks great, too. You can also find this recipe in the Southern Living Christmas Cookbook.

• I have very fond childhood memories of SisMama's Chicken and Dumplings, so this Hearty Turkey Soup with Parsley Dumplings from AllRecipes also sounds really good to me, even though it requires a little more work.

Since BigSis is vegetarian, she doesn't have to worry about what to do with the leftover turkey. I, on the other hand, have leftovers from an 18 pound turkey, so I'll be making some soup this weekend.
