To Die For Potato Soup Food

POTATO SOUP

Steps:

• Combine diced potatoes, carrots, celery and onions with chicken broth in a large pot and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Cover pot and bring to a boil over medium-high heat (it will take about 10 minutes to reach a boil).
• Once it reaches a boil reduce heat to medium and continue to cook about 15 - 20 minutes longer until potatoes are very soft when pierced with a fork.
• Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan melt butter over medium heat, add flour and cook for 1 minute while whisking constantly. While whisking, slowly add milk and cook, stirring constantly until mixture begins thicken.
• Once potatoes are soft add thickened milk mixture to potato soup mixture and stir (potatoes should start breaking down into soup).
• Add sour cream and mix well.
• Ladle soup into serving bowls, top each serving with bacon or ham, cheddar cheese and green onions.

BEST EVER POTATO SOUP

TO DIE FOR CHEESY POTATO SOUP

Steps:

• 1. In a large pot put the diced potatos, onion and celery, and butter, add enough water to just barely cover everything. Bring to a boil until potatos are tender. Reduce heat to very low (DO NOT DRAIN WATER OFF), add heavy cream (can use milk instead) I will add a little bit of milk to this also depending on how much broth I want. Add just a pinch of salt, pepper and garlic salt to taste. Stir and add velveeta (Depending on my mood I have used the whole brick of cheese -- I get the big box of it) stir until melted, add sour cream and stir till it melts into the soup base. To thicken it up I add the potato flakes, I really don't measure, I add and stir until I get the thickness I want. Be sure to stir in between adding the potato flakes because it will thicken quick. Serve with garlic cheese bread or a salad! Enjoy!!!
