Cheddar Potato Soup Recipe


Cheese is the best topping on a baked potato, why wouldn’t this combination be just as awesome in a soup?


Ingredients:

2 Tbsp. Butter

1/3 Cup Celery, chopped

1/3 Cup Onion, chopped

4 Cups Potatoes, peeled and diced

3 Cups Chicken Broth

2 Cups Milk

8 oz. Cheddar Cheese, shredded

Dash Paprika

1/4 tsp. Pepper

Seasoned Croutons, for garnish

Parsley, minced, for garnish


Directions:

In a large pot, add the butter and sauté the celery and onion until tender.  Add the potatoes and broth and bring to a boil.


Reduce the heat, and cover the pot to simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, until the potatoes are tender.


Puree the soup in small batches in a blender, until smooth, and then return to a clean pot.  Stir in the milk, cheese, paprika, and pepper, and cook stirring constantly over low heat until the cheese has melted.


Garnish with parsley and croutons.


And Enjoy!
