We always do Turkey Terazzini too…over the years have developed one we love…maybe it’s the bacon?

Great suggestions, Barbara. Thanks for sharing!
Hello – thanks so much for the link! I think I like TG day leftovers more than the actual meal. We made a double batch of that wild rice soup yesterday…I even make leftovers from my leftovers.
Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Hi Brenda, your soup is on my menu for this weekend. Can’t wait! Perfect comfort food for this chilly weather!
Great round-up and thanks for the mention!
Love your lightened version of the recipe, Kalyn!
