ONE RECIPE, TWO MEALS: CREAMY, CHEESY POTATO SOUP



One Recipe, Two Meals: Creamy, Cheesy Potato Soup image

This soup is ridiculous as is! But for your kids, keep it super simple with lots of Cheddar cheese on top. Or nothing! And for the adult faces, we get a little crazy with the toppings. I'm talking crumbled bacon, jalapeno peppers, dollops of sour cream, cheese, some yummy chives. Yes.

Provided by Bev Weidner

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings (2 kids, 2 adults)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 celery stalks, sliced
1/2 large red onion, diced
3 russet potatoes, cut into 1-inch cubes
Salt and pepper
4 cups chicken stock
2 cups milk
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup shredded Cheddar
Finely chopped fresh chives or scallions, for garnish
4 slices cooked bacon, chopped
Sour cream, for garnish
1 thinly sliced jalapeno

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a deep pot over medium-high heat. Add the celery and onions and saute until the veggies begin to soften, about 2 minutes. Add the potatoes and toss with a good pinch of salt. Add the chicken stock and simmer until the potatoes soften, about 20 minutes. Then add the milk and butter, and stir until the butter melts.
  • At this point you have a few options. If you have an immersion blender, simply stick the wand in the pot and give it a few whizzes, blending some of the soup until it's nice and creamy. You'll still want a good amount of potato chunks in the soup, so don't go overboard, like I tend to do.
  • You can also scoop out about 2 cups of the soup and transfer it to a blender or food processor. Blend until creamy and transfer it back to the soup pot.
  • Or, you can simply mash a few of the potatoes with a potato masher, leaving it on the slightly chunkier side. It's up to you!
  • After you've creamified it, give it another taste and add plenty of salt and pepper if needed.
  • Scoop out a little for the kids and keep it simple for them with shredded Cheddar and a kiss of chives! (Chives are optional, of course.) As for you, adult faces, load up your bowls with plenty of chopped bacon, Cheddar, little dollops of sour cream, sliced jalapenos and chives!

SONORAN-STYLE POTATO, CHEESE, AND TOMATO SOUP



Sonoran-Style Potato, Cheese, and Tomato Soup image

My version of a regional Mexican soup called caldo de queso, featuring potato simmered in tomato-tinted broth, with queso fresco added to each bowl.

Provided by Christian Reynoso

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium red onion, finely chopped
1-2 poblano or Anaheim chiles, seeds removed, thinly sliced
1 tsp. Diamond Crystal or ½ tsp. Morton kosher salt, plus more
3 large garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 Tbsp. tomato paste
1 medium green or yellow summer squash, cut into ½" pieces
1 lb. Yukon Gold potatoes (3-4 large), scrubbed, cut into ½" pieces
6 cups chicken broth (not low-sodium)
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
⅓ cup oregano or marjoram leaves
1½ tsp. red wine vinegar
½ cup whole milk or half-and-half (optional)
10 oz. queso fresco, cut into ½" pieces

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large Dutch oven or other heavy pot over medium. Cook red onion, chile, and 1 tsp. Diamond Crystal or ½ tsp. Morton kosher salt, stirring with a wooden spoon, until starting to soften, about 3 minutes. Stir in garlic and tomato paste, breaking up paste so it coats vegetables, then add squash, potatoes, and broth. Increase heat to medium-high and bring broth to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium and cook until potatoes are almost falling apart, 15-20 minutes.
  • Add cherry tomatoes to pot and cook until warmed through but not bursting, about 3 minutes. Stir in oregano and vinegar and simmer 2 minutes to allow flavors to blend. Remove from heat and stir in milk (if using). Taste soup and season with more salt if needed.
  • Divide queso fresco among bowls and ladle soup over, stirring to prevent cheese from clumping.

TWO CHEESE POTATO & CAULIFLOWER SOUP



Two Cheese Potato & Cauliflower Soup image

I found this recipe before I decided to follow a lower fat diet, so I often reduce the cheese amount and it works just as well. I've also combined it with the Weight Watchers Baked Potato Soup #261058 for a nice lower fat recipe. I use broth when doing the baked potato version. Also adding roasted garlic is quite tasty. Can do the potatoes peeled or unpeeled. The cauliflower can be fresh or frozen.
