1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 carrot, peeled and chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
2 cups of leftover turkey, shredded--I used my Herb Roasted Turkey Breast
1 16 oz can of chicken broth
Italian seasoning (if you don't have a herb roasted turkey)
2 cups cooked bowtie pasta (I used leftovers)
cheese for serving
