Turkey Soup

- 2 turkey wings (usually around 1.5 lbs total)
- 1 small white onion
- 1/2 bunch of celery
- 1/2 bag of carrots
- 5 chicken bouillon cubes
- Seasonings (I use basil, oregano & parsley)
- Salt & Pepper

1.  Clean turkey and place in a large soup pot.  Fill with water so that turkey is covered completely.

2.  Throw in whole skinned onion, bouillon cubes & salt & pepper.

3.  Cook to a boil for 1-2 hours.  I wait until the onion has gotten so soft that its completely broken up.

4.  Remove turkey wings and allow to cool.  Once cool, the turkey should be so tender it will just fall off the bone. I like to sort of shred it into pieces that are reasonable for the soup.

5.  Pour in celery & carrots.  Add seasonings.

6.  Cook for another 30 minutes or so, by this time your turkey should be ready to go back in.  Cook for another 30 minutes.

This makes enough for about 6-8 servings.  I like to freeze half of it in the winter tho.
