mmmm potato soup

A while back I was looking for a good soup recipe. Oh did I find one! A friend from Kirkwood gave it to me. I changed it a bit to fit what I had in the house. It is the best potato soup I HAVE EVER HAD. So today friends I am going to pass it on to You! Enjoy!


1/2 pkg. bacon cut into bite pieces

3 cups peeled diced potatoes

2 small grated carrots

1/2 cup chopped onions

1 can chicken broth

1/2 tsp. each: celery salt

salt

pepper

1/2 tbs. parsley flakes

3 tbs. flour

3 cup

a few hand full of shredded cheese (original recipe called Velveeta cheese)

- Fry bacon in soup pot and drain grease

- Add potatoes, carrots, onion, chicken broth, celery salt, salt, pepper, parsley flakes. Cover. Cook until potatoes are tender. (15-20 min.)

-In separate bowl combine milk and Flour. Wisk together. Add to soup. Bring to boil and broil only 2 MIN. (NOT ANY LONGER OR THE MILK WILL SEPERATE.)

-Remove from heat stir in cheese until melted.

Dear spring, COME SOON!

We were to get snow today, talking up to a foot. That is on top of what we have gotten on Friday! I just heard that we all can relax because it has missed us!

I THINK THAT IS THE BEST NEWS I HEARD ALL DAY! I REALLY DON'T THINK WE NEED ANY MORE!




That black spot you see above the snow is
JON'S HEAD!
