I hate to waste anything so this recipe was great. I didn't have bay leaves so obviously I didn't use them. I did add celery and a little garlic and let everything cook for about and 1-1/2 hours. The broth made a delicious turkey noodle soup. I guess I'll have to try this with the chicken bones next. Thanks.

I remember seeing this in my travels through the recipe site, and thank you so much for posting this. My husband with his stacks and stacks of science magazines and New York Times papers, asked if I knew of a recipe using the bones of the turkey. Looked up your recipe and 'voila', we can make use of the bones as well as the rest of the turkey! I thank you Mirj for reminding all of us to use and enjoy every last bit!

This is just like I like to make mine. I hate to throw anything out. The only difference is I like to add a potato, and a few sprigs of fresh parsley from the garden, and a pinch of freshly ground sage. Wonderful, Mirj!

Mirj, a good recipe for turkey stock. I did leave a little more meat on the carcass than you suggested, but everything else was the same. The vegetables give the stock another depth which will be wonderful in the soup. Thanks for giving us this wonderful recipe.
