Homemade Easy Potato Soup


I faithfully read the Commercial Appeal's food blog Whining and Dining and when the food writer blogged recently about her favorite convenience recipe, Easy Potato Soup, I knew I had to try it. Jake and I made it Monday night and have been eating on it for a few days since. I love potato soup and really found this easy AND very tasty. Here's the recipe (I added/ changed a bit from her's):

1 bag Ore-Ida Steam and Mash Potatoes - Cut Russet kind
2 cans chicken broth
milk
onion
shredded cheese
salt/pepper
bacon (optional)
jalapenos (optional)
sour cream (optional)

1) Boil the potatoes and onion in the chicken broth about 10 minutes

2) Put immersion blender in pot (we used our hand mixer)

3) add milk, stir, wait to thicken

4) add salt/pepper, cheese, bacon to taste and let sit until cheese melts (we added jalapenos and sour cream as well)

5) let cool a little bit before serving (it will be hot!)
