A very creamy soup. Cheddar gives it a sunny color and tantalizing taste. A good meal starter, it’s also a great choice for a light lunch or supper when teamed with a salad and bread. Ingredients:
1/3 cup chopped onion |
1/3 cup chopped celery |
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine |
4 cups diced peeled potatoes |
3 cups chicken broth |
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese |
2 cups milk |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1 dash paprika |
seasoned croutons |
minced fresh parsley |
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, sauté onion and celery in butter until tender. Add potatoes and broth; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes or until potatoes are tender. 2. Puree in small batches in a blender until smooth; return to the pan. Stir in the cheese, milk, pepper and paprika. Cook and stir over low heat until the cheese is melted. Garnish with croutons and parsley. Yield: 8 servings. 3. Country Woman. |
