Easy Creamy & Brothy Potato Soup
"Easy, few ingredients, not too thick but more substance than a broth soup. Healthier than canned. Nothing fancy but satisfying and simple. All done in one pot too. I prefer organic stock which is lower in sodium, so adjust for that. very good with good italian garlic bread topped with good italian cheese."

This is a great basic potato soup. It has a very nice texture from being semi-mashed...makes it seem like it's more fattening than it is. I used fresh garlic instead of powder and added some celery salt for some extra flavor. This will be made again; thanx for posting!

i am a stay at home mother, formerly a kindergarten teacher. one of my favorite cookbooks is "home cooking" by laurie colwin.
i love to cook but other than my 3 yr old daughter and myself, i really dont have anyone to cook for. my daughter eats lots of broccoli and fresh garlic dishes and loves to help me in the kitchen preparing the food that she and i eat. i try to follow a strict organic lifestyle as best i can for my daughter and i.
