Colorful Potato Soup


If you are like me, a good hot soup is appropriate on an icy Winter's day. Potatoes, cabbage, red onion and celery sitting very lonely in our refrigerator seem to be saying, "Make me into a nice soup, please" and so they became a nice soup for when Mum gets home from work. I always like colorful food with lots of flavor. Here's how it went (though I'll leave the amounts out...everyone is different so make as much or as little as you like).

Colorful Potato Soup

Chop and Saute until tender:
Red Onion
Celery
Cabbage
Boiled Potatoes

Add:
Garlic powder or fresh minced garlic
Salt
Pepper
Caraway Seeds or
Parsley

When vegetables have become tender then add:
1 part chicken broth
1 part heavy cream or milk

Simmer. Serve with parmesan and toasted bread. Enjoy!
