LEFTOVER MASHED POTATO SOUP
One Thanksgiving, I asked my son-in-law, who was visiting with our daughter and her family, to make the mashed potatoes. I neglected to say how much, and he ending up paring and cooking an entire 10-pound bag of Idaho russets. After they left, we had about six cups of leftover mashed potatoes I like potato soup, so I thought maybe I could turn the leftover mashed potatoes into soup.

SINGLE ESSENTIALS: LEFTOVER MASHED POTATO SOUP
As a caterer, I make recipes that serve a lot of people; however, sometimes I just want to make something for me. Unfortunately, it is not always that simple to cut a recipe down. For example, a recipe that is designed to feed twenty, may not work the same if you cut it down to feed just one. I tried to keep the spices simple (salt/pepper) but add whatever makes you happy. This recipe actually will serve one-or-two folks, depending on your appetites. So, you ready... Let's get into the kitchen.
