Potato soup is a simple, delicious comfort food perfect during these winter storms we’re having around here. It’s one of those unpretentious meals that can be made with very few ingredients and may just quickly become one of your family’s favorite soups during cold weather.
You could add all sorts of things to this soup if you’d like, but I recommend starting with this simple, basic recipe and go from there. Most times, we would rather stick with this version than add a lot of other ingredients.
Ya know, simple really is best most of the time, isn’t it?
Here’s how I make my potato soup.
