¼ cup butter
1 stalk celery, sliced

  • Season the soup to taste. Salt, pepper, and garlic powder are all good starting points. You can also add other spices, such as paprika, cumin, or chili powder.
  • Serve the soup with a variety of toppings. Shredded cheese, crumbled bacon, and chopped green onions are all popular choices.

Conclusion:
