Cheesy Potato Soup

 



3 Tbsp. butter
1 cup onions, finely diced
celery, 1 rib, finely diced
1 tsp. minced garlic
1/4 cup flour
30 oz. chicken or vegetable broth
1 tsp. thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
1 1/2 lbs. new potatoes, quartered
1 1/2 cups 2% milk
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, grated
2 Tbsp. green onion, chopped (optional)

 

  1. Melt butter in a large saucepan. Add the onions and celery and sauté. Next in goes the garlic and it is sautéed for another minute. Then, add the flour and cook for 1 min. stirring. Add in the broth slowly and whisk constantly until all is incorporated and smooth.
  2. Add in the potatoes, thyme, salt, and pepper, bring to a simmer and cover. Cook for 15 min. or until potatoes are fork-tender.
  3. Add in the milk and bring back up to a simmer. Add in the cheese and stir. Season again if needed with salt and pepper. Serve, topping each bowl with some green onion.

This is a quick soup at about 35 minutes or so.  Delicious  :)
