Wonderful potato soup that I will definitely make it again. I did use chicken broth instead of water and skim milk but this was still a very good bowl of soup. Took this to my inlaw's for supper and they loved it too. Enjoyed the pieces of celery, carrots, and potatoes but this could easily be pureed in the blender for a cream soup. Served with a tossed salad and crusty bread. Thank you so much Mamamoose for sharing your recipe!

I live/work on a grain farm of 5500 tillable acres. My husband and I have 4 children, 1 boy 9yr old and 2 boy/1 girl 7yr olds.
I am cooking in a small private school. The only cook for 80 people. Having fun with it, though and the way the kids are eating, I'm doing alright.
My husband is a picky eater which makes it challenging to be creative in the kitchen.
