Cold season, flu season, gross, germy season.

Try as we might to avoid catching whatever bug is going around, it’s hard to escape the fall and winter without something getting us feeling down.

For me it’s eternally laryngitis, an issue that I’ve battled with for years now. Last week my son got a bit of a cold, which I caught and of course it turned into me being voiceless for 5 days. One of my most important weapons in fighting back against this issue is hot, soothing liquids. Teas, tonics, soups, you name it!

Even now, after I have my voice back, my throat is still scratchy and sore, leaving me craving bowls of soothing, delicious soup for dinner. I’m a soup lover to begin with, and getting sick just amplifies that feeling.

This one pot turkey noodle soup is a magical dish that is both healing and comforting.

It’s simple, diverse (like this Vegetarian Pho recipe), and is appealing to people of all ages and all walks of life. Whether rich or poor, happy or sad, sick or well, having a bowl of hot soup feels like you’re surrounding yourself with a warm blanket on a cold day. Even Maya Angelou agrees:

“Whenever something went wrong when I was young – if I had a pimple or if my hair broke – my mom would say, ‘Sister mine, I’m going to make you some soup.’ And I really thought the soup would make my pimple go away or my hair stronger.”

While I don’t think this soup will do anything to help your pimples go away, it will definitely make you feel amazing and revitalized. This is a simple turkey noodle soup that is a complete meal in a bowl. It has protein, carbs, and vegetables, and to top it off, it’s minimal work on your part.

A million times better than anything in a can, this one pot turkey noodle soup will be your go-to meal next time someone in your house is sick.

Or cold. Or maybe they just have a pimple they need to go away! Whatever the case, you’ll love this turkey noodle soup!

  1. Cook oil, celery, and onions in a large stock pot over medium heat for 3-4 minutes, or until onions begin to get translucent.

  3. Add garlic, carrots, potatoes and let cook with the celery and onion for 2 minutes.

  4. Add vegetable stock, water, and all the spices. Let simmer for 15 minutes. While this is simmering, shred the cooked turkey breast that you had set aside.

  6. Mix cooked pasta into the soup just before serving.

Recipe Notes

If you’re making this soup ahead of time, I like to leave the pasta out of the broth so it doesn’t soak up any of that delicious soup!

While you’re in the kitchen you might as well whip up some immune boosting elderberry syrup. Find out how over on our sister blog, Pronounce Skincare.

  1. Sounds delicious + easy to make too!
    I would also add a pinch of grated ginger and fresh grated horseradish for a little
    warming heat for lungs. Just your herbalists’ two cents!
    Will definitely make after next turkey dinner.. or may just need to purchase a cutlet to make earlier!

  2. I am making turkey broth right now and can not wait to use it to make your delicious turkey noodle soup! Rainy days this time of year definitely call for homemade soup!
