This is the perfect recipe for your leftover Thanksgiving turkey, and
it's so simple. The hardest part is taking the turkey off of the bones,
and after that it's a one pot soup. Low in saturated fat, sodium and
calories, but really high in fiber. So satisfying and you'll feel great
about eating a fine, delicious soup that's great for you.
Salt and Canned beans

Canned beans are something I keep in my pantry to use in a pinch if
I need a hurry-up meal. The flavor is usually great, but you have to
be careful because of the sodium content (see Salt in Canned vs.
Frozen Veggies). There is usually about 400 – 500 mg sodium in a
half cup of canned beans.

Unfortunately, simply rinsing canned beans doesn't help to reduce
the sodium content. However, if the beans are rinsed and then
heated in clear water, the sodium content drops by about a third.

In the recipes in this book where I call for canned beans, the
Nutrition Facts are based on canned beans. If you need to be on
a very low salt diet, buying dried beans and cooking them yourself
lets you control the amount of sodium.

2 quarts water
Leftover turkey bones
2 lbs leftover turkey meat
3 15oz cans no salt added white beans (drained and rinsed)
3 large ribs celery (thickly sliced)
3 large carrots (peeled and cut into large chunks)
3/4 tsp salt
Fresh ground black pepper (to taste)
1 Tbsp dried sage

Place the water in a large stock pot over high heat. Add the turkey
bones, and when the water just begins to boil reduce the heat to
simmer. Simmer for 30 minutes.

Strain and discard the bones. Add the broth to the pot with the turkey
meat, white beans, celery, carrots, salt, pepper and sage.

Simmer over medium heat for about 90 minutes. Serve.
