Today we start a new feature on the Zappos Blogs: Since, at Zappos, we sell some of the best cookware around, we thought that we would give our customers some good ideas on how what to cook! So coming from Whitney M. and Robert P., here we go!
It is great to prepare soups for Sunday dinners, allowing you to have plenty of leftovers for the week. The below recipe for Turkey soup is a favorite because it has such a rich and simple flavor. This recipe is best with leftover Turkey, but you can also buy the pre-made chicken/turkey at the grocery store for easy preparation. Enjoy!!!!
