1 tbsp salt
1 tsp pepper
½ cup mild cheddar cheese
1 cup heavy cream

Instructions

Prep the Potatoes: Peel and cut the potatoes into ½ inch cubes.
Boil and Strain: Boil the diced potatoes until soft. Once done, strain and let them cool.
Sauté the Veggies: In a saucepan, sauté the onions and celery in butter over medium heat for about 15 minutes, or until they're soft and fragrant.

🍳 Tip: Cooking the vegetables slowly allows them to caramelize, deepening their flavor and enhancing your soup!

Heat the Milk: In a large soup pot, pour in the milk and heat it over medium.
Combine Ingredients: Add the sautéed onions, cooled potatoes, and chicken base to the pot. Let everything simmer on medium for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Make it Creamy: Stir in the cheddar cheese and heavy cream, cooking until the soup reaches your desired thickness.
Season to Perfection: Add salt and pepper to taste.

🔄 Want a thicker soup? Mix a tablespoon of cornstarch with a little cold water to create a slurry, and stir it into the soup until it thickens!

Serving Suggestions

Serve this potato soup with a sprinkle of fresh herbs on top or additional cheese for an extra indulgent touch.

Variations

Veggie Boost: Add carrots or peas for extra color and nutrition!
Spicy Kick: Toss in some diced jalapeños or crushed red pepper flakes for a warm spicy note.
