The weather is warming up a bit here in California, just in time for spring break season. But we still have some cool evenings. For these nights, I love to make this tasty, creamy potato cheese soup.
This is one of my favorite soups to make when I want to warm things up. This soup is very versatile too! You can top it with cooked bacon bits and sour cream for more of a baked potato soup. I love to serve in in little crock bowls, like these.
Making this Potato soup is so easy. All you have to do is through some pealed potatoes in a pot and add a few ingredients once they are cooked. The flavors blend together well to make a wonderful comfort food soup.
It tastes like it took a long time, but it is actually one of the easiest soup recipes you will find!
Stir often and continue cooking soup about 15 more minutes over medium-low heat (soup will thicken).
So warm and comforting!

Cheese and potatoes – what’s not to love? My favorite cold weather soup is clam chowder, although that’s more of a summer soup around here in New England.
Organizedisland says
Oh clam chowder sounds good too Tamara.
