GOOD, FAST, and HOME MADE POTATO SOUP image

This is my recipe. Mom made hers with speatzels and cooked it a long time. I get the potato soup flavor with this simple, everyday version.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

SOUP:
4 medium potatoes, peeled and sliced
2 small onions, chopped
1 sprig(s) celery, chopped or 1/2 teaspoon celery salt
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp freshly grated black pepper
4 c chicken broth or bouillon (you can use just water but the flavor is better with broth)
1-3 c milk to thin soup to your liking
OPTIONAL GARNISH:
crisp bacon bits, shredded cheese, or sour cream to garnish, optional

Steps:

  • 1. Place vegetables in large pot. Add seasonings and broth. Vegetables should just be covered. If need be add water.
  • 2. Bring to a boil, turn heat down and simmer until potatoes are completely done. Use a fork to mash potatoes if they are in large chunks (but I like to leave this soup a bit chunky). Add milk to thin to desired consistency.
  • 3. Garnish with crisp bacon bits, shredded cheese, or sour cream if you like.
