Used the left over smoked turkey legs in my soup and it came out great!

1 llb split peas
2 smoked turkey legs
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 tsp salt
2 quarts h20
2/3 carrots chopped small
2 celery stalks chopped small
2 small onions chopped small
Ham steak (preferably smoked) diced

bring the peas, turkey legs, thyme, salt,
and water to simmer in a dutch oven or heavy bottomed pot. Cover and cook 1 hour.

Stir in carrots, onions, and celery. Continue to simmer till peas are soft, 30 min.

remove turkey legs, chop some of the meat on the legs and add that and the ham. Season with salt and pepper to taste, simmer 10 more min and serve>
 
I can vouch for concept, made several pots of split pea soup with smoked tukey carcasses. Awesome!
 
Even though I just ate, my mouth is watering
