Directions
Grandma’s Cream of Potato Soup or Broccoli Soup, This recipe has a slight smoky flavor due to the deli bacon Broccoli can be substituted for potatoes for Cream of Broccoli Soup **This recipe can also be used for Clam Chowder Eliminate the broccoli and use Chopped Clams , I made this today, and I cut the recipe in half since there were only two of us eating today Very good!! Husband loved it! I did make a few changes used half n half and heavy cream, equal parts and skipped the ham Will definitely make again!!!, This is my new favorite recipe! I LOVE this soup! I think next time I’ll use less cream (what are you supposed to do with the other half a quart of cream by the way??) and sub milk instead But this was YUMM!!!
