Potato Soup (Yummy - w/Low Fat Options)
- 12 small red potatoes, cubed small
- 1 onion, diced
- 3 celery stalks, diced
- 4 cup water
- 2 can Campbell's Cream of Mushroom Soup
- 1/2 tsp salt - or more to taste
- 1 pinch of celery salt
- 1/2 tsp cajun seasoning
- 1 pinch of rosemary
- 1 ground red and black pepper - to taste
- 1 cup milk
- 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp chopped parsley
- 8 slice bacon, diced
- 1 cheese, shredded
- 1 corn tortilla chips, crumbled
- In a large stock pot, cook bacon until crisp.
- (Bacon is used as a garnish)
- Remove bacon and remove and discard half of the fat from the pot.
- Add onions and celery to pot (with remaining bacon fat) and saute for 2 mins.
- - FOR A LOWER FAT VERSION, AFTER BACON IS COOKED, DISCARD ALL FAT AND SAUTE USING OLIVE OIL.
- Add potatoes to the pot (I like to keep the skin on).
- Cook for 5 mins.
- Add seasoning
- Add water
- Add Campbell's Cream of Mushroom Soup (or your favorite condensed creamy soup).
- Stir and cook until potatoes begin to soften, about 8 - 10 mins.
- - FOR A LOWER FAT VERSION, USE 98%FAT FREE CAMPBELL'S CREAM OF MUSHROOM SOUP.
- In a separate bowl, mix milk and flour until smooth.
- Add milk mixture (slowly while stirring) into pot.
- Cook for 5 mins.
- - FOR A LOWER FAT VERSION, USE NON-FAT MILK.
- Remove half of the ingredients from the pot, and blend in a blender untill smooth.
- Return the blended ingredients to the pot and mix with the chunky ingredients (this keeps texture in your soup).
- Add parsley.
- Simmer, stir, and taste.
- YUM!
- When serving, garnish with cheese, bacon, and/or tortilla chips (optional but adds more texture, crunch, and flavor).
- - FOR A LOWER FAT VERSION, OMIT BACON OR SUBTITUTE WITH TURKEY BACON, OMIT CHEESE, AND USE FAT FREE TORTILLA CHIPS.
