Potato soup is one of my favorite recipes.  With some cheese it is wonderful, and if you fry up some bacon to sprinkle on it…over the top!  I even pureed some for baby J’s lunch.  To make the recipe more baby friendly I removed the salt and garlic salt and added 4 cloves of fresh crushed garlic instead. For the adult salt lovers eating this meal, we just added the salted to our bowls.

Potato Soup Original Recipe

10-15 potatoes peeled and chopped
1 lg onion, chopped
2 carrots, chopped
2 celery stalks, chopped
cover with water and cook until soft but not too mushy.  If you want the soup to be thicker…more chowder like…pour off some of the water.

Add:
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 can cream of chicken soup
8 oz cream cheese…I used 1/3  less fat and didn’t notice a difference
1 1/2 cups milk
2 tsp garlic salt
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
