Instructions to make Potato Soup (made with ham and cheese):
- Wash and cube potatoes (1 inch thickness and add them with seasoning, carrots and ham to a covered ~12 qt. pot to boil over medium to medium-high heat in the broth until tender. (I like to cheat here and microwave the potatoes before I cut them up to help them along). Make sure you add just enough extra water to cover ingredients (~4 more cups). Stir occasionally.
- Sauté over medium heat, onions and celery in margarine or butter just until tender and add the to the pot.
- After potatoes are really fork tender (may need to taste one), melt the cheese in the microwave or a sauce pan following package directions. (I cube it and microwave 1 min. stir, 1 min. stir and 1 min. more and stir in a splash of milk to loosen it up if necessary). Add to pot and stir.
- Add instant potatoes to pot and stir until dissolved.
- Add sour cream to pot and stir.
- Add salt and pepper to taste and let the soup thicken by simmering over low heat, probably ~10 mins depending on the amount of extra water added.
- Sit back and relax, you’re done, enjoy with/without real bacon bits and/or crackers (I like Ritz).
Stir in the chicken bouillon, salt (if using), and pepper. In separate saucepan, melt butter over medium-low heat. I removed bone and veggies and discarded. I then took out ham and chopped. Stir in the chicken bouillon, salt and pepper.
