This soup is perfect for a relaxing dinner with your family after a stressful day. It’s creamy, it’s super thick that’s perfect for cold weather, and is cheesy. It’s richness defined in one creamy dish. Pair it off with crusty bread and you’ll have the nicest dinner! It’s also easy to make. Our friend over at the Sweet Tea Sweetie has this to say about this recipe:
“When I was growing up, whenever I got sick I would ask my mom for Potato Soup. She always made it super thick, creamy, and loaded with cheese. It was so warm and comforting. To this day, Potato Soup can always make me feel better.”
I feel the same towards my Mom’s soups. She had a soup for every occasion that never failed to make me feel better. Maybe because she’s my mom, but other than that, she really cooked great food and they will forever be the best food for me.
