Turkey Soup with Tomatoes and Herbs. - Recipe

Great soup, if you have turkey leftovers from holidays or if you just wish to have a rich, hearty soup for lunch. Any part of turkey will be good (I cooked mine from turkey neck and some leftovers.) It takes 30-40 minutes to cook and the taste is amazing. The key to great taste are tomatoes and herbs.
