Turkey Mashed Potato Soup

              Thanksgiving is over and I pray you all stuffed your bellies super full and had enough pie that you had to loosen one or two belt notches. 
              Our family had a wonderful few days celebrating the gift of thankfulness.  One of our favorite things to take away from the holiday is the LEFTOVERS.  The spirit of Thanksgiving keeps going on and on and on until to you never want to see turkey or mashed potatoes again.  Thankfully there are thousands of yummy recipes out there for thanksgiving leftovers.  We came up with a pretty tasty one ourselves and I would love to share with you all.  Pull up a chair. It's a yummy one.

Turkey Mashed Potato Soup
Renee Clark

1 lb Bacon or Sausage
1 Onion Chopped
Vegetables of Choice-optional
1 Celery Green Chopped
3 to 4 Cloves of Garlic
5 tbsp. Butter
2 to 3 cups Milk
Leftover Mashed Potatoes
Leftover Turkey
1 cup Parmesan Cheese
Seasoning Salt to Taste
Salt and Pepper to Taste

Cook bacon or sausage in the bottom of kettle. Cook until meat is done and add onion.  Cook until onion is turning clear.  Add the rest of ingredients and seasonings to the kettle.  Set to medium heat.  Let simmer for about 30 min.  Keep stirring since the mashed potatoes will stick to the bottom of the pan. Finally add vegetables and cook until done.  I served with homemade bread.
