PENNY’S POTATO SOUP

Posted by Carole-Anne on February 13, 2008

 Healthy Recipes has received my sister, Penny’s favorite potato soup which she makes often, and I love it!. It is easy to make, takes little time, and makes a quick meal with a whole wheat biscuit and a small green salad.

INGREDIENTS:

 4 rashers bacon (I pat pieces with paper towel)

1 medium onion, chopped

4 medium-large russet potatoes, quartered and sliced

1 pkg chicken broth

6 cups water

Salt and pepper to taste

NEXT TO DO:

Chop bacon into small pieces and fry over medium-low heat until crispy.  Save 1 tbsp fat.  Add onions and cook until translucent, stirring to prevent browning.  Add sliced potatoes and stir in with other ingredients. 

Pour in water and add chicken broth.  Cook uncovered for 15 to 20 minutes or until potatoes are cooked.  Season with salt and pepper to taste. 

Serve with fresh whole wheat bread or cheese scones.

Healthy Recipe serves 4.
