Directions
Potato Soup,I got this potato soup recipe from my mother in law. We absolutely love it and it is very simple.You can, of course, decrease the cheese amount. I also add broccoli, carrots, corn, peas or any combination of those when I am in the mood. Very delicious, yet simple, soup.,I work with special needs adults. We are required to make low sodium low carb meals. I need help with this as for I have never counted carbs or sodium but now I must do this for my clients.,This recipe is very versatile. Made it a few times now. This time around I had red potatoes and 1% milk. I feel like the flour:butter ratio is off so I actually double the butter. But I’m used to cooking butter & flour as a roux. This time did add A LOT of fresh garlic and cayenne! Totally gave it a great kick. I did not have chicken stock or bouillon but I spotted a can of condensed cream of chicken soup & used that. I’m sure you could literally use anything, or as one reviewer stated, omit it entirely and it’s fine! I also didnt have enough cheese. I had half a block of mozzarella, which worked just fine! I did add maybe 3oz cream cheese simply because I had it. This recipe reminds me of shepherd’s pie, where you literally can pull whatever the heck you got in your fridge and it will work. Why? I think it might simply be the potato, dairy, & flour ratio and the method in which its cooked, that makes this great. Did I mention I double this recipe for 5 kids? They love it!
