Because of Lonnie's current work schedule we always eat "dinner" for lunch. So today for lunch I made something new and it was the first time that I have ever made soup from scratch. (My Grandma Shipe would be so proud!) It was awesome! Here is the recipe.
Potato Soup
1 1/2 cups sliced green onions
1/4 cup water
5 cups cubed potatoes
3/4 cup chopped celery
1 1/3 cups cubed carrots
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups water
1/4 cup butter or margarine
1/4 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon salt
4 cups skim milk
2 cubes chicken bouillon
Saute green onions in 1/4 cup water in a large skillet until tender. Add potatoes, celery, carrots, 1 teaspoon salt, and 2 cups water. Cover and simmer for 20-25 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
Meanwhile, melt butter or margarine in a medium saucepan. Add flour, pepper, and 1 teaspoon salt. Gradually add milk and bouillon. Cook and stir until mixture thickens. Add to vegetables. Enjoy!
** Anyone who knows me know that I did NOT put the celery in. However, I did put in a bag of frozen corn.**

Sounds so yummy...I would leave out the celery too...anything that takes calories to eat isn't worth eating. Love your new background! So cute!!
Sounds yummy...my Mom taught me a quick timesaver for Potato soup...you can use frozen hashbrowns (the little cube ones) instead of peeling and chopping your own...no one will ever know!!
