Ready for an easy dish that hits the spot, here’s a recipe for a delicious homemade potato soup:

Ingredients:

  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 4 cups of potatoes, peeled and chopped
  • 4 cups of vegetable or chicken broth
  • 1 cup of milk or heavy cream
  • 3 tbsp of butter
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Optional toppings: shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, bacon bits

Instructions:

  1. Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and minced garlic, and sauté for about 5 minutes or until the onions are translucent.
  2. Add the chopped potatoes and broth to the pot, and bring the mixture to a boil.
  3. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the soup simmer for about 20-25 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
  4. Remove the pot from the heat and use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can transfer the soup to a blender and puree it in batches.
  5. Return the pot to the heat and add the milk or heavy cream. Stir the soup until the cream is fully incorporated.
  6. Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste, and serve hot with your desired toppings.

Alternative Ingredients:

  • Instead of potatoes, you can use sweet potatoes or butternut squash for a different flavor.
  • For a vegetarian version, use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.
  • Add some cooked bacon or ham to the soup for extra protein and flavor.
  • Stir in some chopped kale or spinach for added nutrients.

Begin Summer Days with a Satisfying Breakfast

Published

on

Breakfast (Family Features) Before heading out the door for pool days, bike rides, summer camps and other family-favorite activities, there’s one key component to starting your day on the right foot: a nutritious breakfast. Filling morning meals help you and your loved ones power through all summer has to offer, whether you’re getting active on a hike or family walk or simply soaking in the sun. Paired with a healthy lifestyle, an 8-ounce glass of 100% orange juice includes key nutrients such as vitamin C, folate, thiamin and potassium, as well as calcium and vitamin D (in fortified juices), that help support the immune system all year long. Summer is no exception – particularly with its usual hectic schedules that include sports and other outdoor activities. Plus, it’s fat-free, cholesterol-free, sodium-free, has no added sugar and is made up of almost 90% water, which means it’s a healthy complement to your water hydration routine – another must during the hot summer months. While delicious and nutritious on its own, an option like Florida Orange Juice can also be enjoyed as part of morning favorite recipes like French toast. As a meal that can satisfy the entire family, this Orange Juice French Toast with Infused Whipped Cream offers a twist on a breakfast classic. As a delicious addition to any diet, 100% orange juice is a perfect way to sit down together at the table before tackling the day’s adventures.
