Potato Soup. yum!

As I said, one of my 2010 goals is to make a new recipe each week. Potato Soup is my recipe for the week. I've been wanting some for a while now. I am used to my step dads, which is totally delish! But this is not my step dads potato soup.

I got the recipe from "Fix it and Forget it Cookbook" .

Here it is:

This whole cook book is for 3-4qt crockpots.. Our is 7qt. So I usually modify the recipes some. We usually have alot of leftovers, but they always get eaten.

6 potatoes, peeled and cubed
2 leeks, chopped
2 onions, chopped
1 rib celery, sliced
4 chicken bouillon cubs
1 Tbsp. dried parsley flakes
5 cups water
1 Tbsp. salt , Pepper to taste
1/3 cup butter
13oz can evaporated milk
chopped chives

1. Combine all ingredients execpt milk and chives in slow cooker.

2. Cover. Cook on Low 10-12 hrs, or High 3-4hrs.  Stir in milk during the last hour.

3. If desired, mash potatoes before serving

4. garnish with chives.

 Next time i plan on adding some turkey sausage. we also put a little bit of cheese on top after we scooped it into our dinner bowls.
