I'll be the first to admit that this soup is nothing fancy, nothing groundbreaking BUT, I love it. As in, this is what I'll have for lunch about 75% of days between now and April. It gets the occasional break with a big batch of my Mom's veggie soup but, when I get tired of eating all my veggies, it's back to this nice, easy, potato soup. Bonus, it's 4 ingredients (not counting crackers), all of which I'd consider pantry staples. Second bonus, this makes enough for about 8 days of my lunches. I LOVE that.
{4} Ingredient Home-Style Potato Soup
yield: 7-8 servings
Ingredients
-32 ounces chicken broth*
-5-6 medium potatoes (about 2 pounds)
-3 cups milk (I usually do a mix of skim and whole)
-shredded cheese, pick your favorite (cheddar and/or pepper jack here)
Directions
1) Dump chicken broth into a large pan over high heat. Clean and cut potatoes into bite-sized pieces (I don't peel them because I don't want the extra work, just scrub them well). Add potatoes to broth and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Once boiling, reduce heat to low and let simmer for 15 minutes, until potatoes are cooked.
2) Mash the potatoes with a potato masher to your desired consistency. Stir in the milk and cheese and let cook for about 5 minutes, until hot. Serve immediately!
*I've used both the canned variety and chicken bouillon cubes with water, whichever I have on hand.
