It has gotten very cold here lately, in fact, they are predicting that we will get our first snowfall of the season tonight to the tune of 6-8 inches! WOW!!! So, what goes better with the cold than soup?!? I hunted for a recipe today and found one that I wanted to try. And I must say that it turned out wonderfully, and the brother even said that if I have to bring someone a meal this winter that I should make this! Guess that's his vote of greatness! ;)
POTATO AND HAM SOUP
5 C. Potatoes, diced
1 C. Onion, diced
3/4 C. Celery, diced
3/4 C. Carrot, diced
2 tsp. Salt
1/2 tsp. Pepper
1 1/2 C. Diced Ham
2 (10.75 oz.) Cans Condensed Cream of Celery Soup
1 C. Heavy Cream
Place the Potatoes, Onion, Celery, Carrots, Salt and Pepper in Stock-pot; add water until all vegetables are covered. Bring to a boil; cook until all veggies are tender. Add the Ham, Cream of Celery Soup, and Heavy Cream; return to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes. Adjust the seasoning and serve.
It really and truly was this simple, and it was oh so good! Give it a try.
Sounds good and easy--two thumbs up! Looks like it could be made in a crock pot, too . . .
