Prepare Your Ingredients: Start by gathering all your ingredients. If using leftovers, ensure your turkey is shredded and vegetables are washed and chopped.
Heat the Oil: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-5 minutes.
Add Vegetables: Stir in the chopped carrots and celery. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the veggies to soften.
Add Turkey and Broth: Add the shredded turkey to the pot along with the chicken broth and canned tomatoes. Stir well to combine.
Season It: Sprinkle in the dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Stir to mix all the ingredients together.
Simmer: Bring the soup to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer uncovered for about 20-30 minutes.
Taste and Adjust: Taste the soup and adjust seasoning if needed.
Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and enjoy it warm.
