Cheesy Potato Soup…Yes Please

by 10 Comments

Fast and simple cheesy potato soup. This is the perfect comfort food!

 

I have been making this soup since 1991.  (Not this exact pot of soup, that would be weird….and gross).  When I moved to Atlanta to go to college, my mom send me with a stack of recipes.  This creamy, cheesy, potato soup soon made its way to the top of the stack.  And once I made it, it became a regular.

It’s so simple, and can be easily doubled for a crowd.

I made a big pot this week to take for lunch with some dear friends, and of course had to leave a bowl for Greg.  It is rich and filling, but still made better with a dip of some fresh baked bread, if you ask me.

Not Your Average Wild Rice Soup

by 17 Comments

Wild rice soup with a silky, creamy broth.

Winter is soup weather.  If you’re a soup fan, you’re going to want to check this one out.  It is unique to every other wild rice soup I’ve ever had.  Most wild rice soups are thick and hearty.  I love ’em.  My creamy chicken and rice soup is thick like this.  Yum!  But this soup is not like that.

For some reason, decades ago, when my mom got the recipe for this wild rice soup, she didn’t thicken it as much as called for.  What that leaves you with is a silky, creamy broth.  It’s totally unique.  And wonderful!

Crock Pot Lasagna Soup

by 16 Comments

This lasagna soup for the crock pot is hearty and satisfying!

Every year I host a Christmas cookie baking day for a group of ladies.  We spend all day baking, dipping, and decorating.  By lunchtime, we are ready for a hearty, satisfying lunch.  And because my kitchen is full of baking sheets, sprinkles, and cookies in various stages of preparedness… I need something easy!

My standby is a crock pot full of soup.  Maybe cheesy potato, maybe creamy chicken and rice.  I like to serve something that I can prepare in advance.  Then at lunchtime, all I have to do is heat up some rolls or breadsticks and we’re all set!

This year I made lasagna soup.  And there was not a drop left.  None.  That’s a good sign, right?!

Creamy Chicken and Rice Soup

by 11 Comments

This creamy chicken and rice soup is a snap to make, but tastes like it simmered all day.

This thick and creamy chicken and rice soup is easier to make than you might think.

 

This soup is kind of the definition of comfort food, if you ask me.  But I can’t give you the recipe without telling you about Miss Vicki.

In honor of Miss Vicki

In Memory

We had a family friend who was battling cancer a number of years ago.  I made this soup once for her, and after that, she requested it frequently.  I still think of her whenever I make it, so I can’t very well publish the recipe without remembering her.  Here’s to Vicki!
