I made this potato soup from an old Paula Deen cookbook. My husband is not exactly a fan, but he ended up really liking this soup. A really, rich and satisfying meal and we ate on the leftovers for like two days. I made her green chili corn muffins as well and decided I could post both together even though this will end up being quite a lengthy post.....but who could get bored of looking at potatoes and corn muffins....just writing about it gets me hungry!
 |
| Base of soup uses onions and carrots |
 |
| Cook the carrots and onions in a stick of butter.....always indicates goodness when a stick of butter is around |
 |
| After the carrots and onions cook for a bit in the butter add some flour |
 |
| Add cream, vegetable stock and cut up potatoes |
 |
| After cooking for about an hour soup is ready to eat |
 |
| My soup looks more like a chowder, but you can add some more milk or water to thin it out, also I made these green chili corn muffins....see pics below |
 |
| Beginning of green chili corn muffins....also from Paula Deen |
 |
| Lots of wet ingredients....sour cream, cream corn, green chili and cheddar cheese |
 |
| Add egg and mix ingredients just until incorporated |
 |
| My steadfast kitchen helper, my french bulldog Luna, always hoping something falls on the floor |
 |
| Technically I should have made all the muffins small, but I only have one mini muffin pan right now |
 |
| Well worth all the ingredients the recipe calls for...these would be great with chili or tomato soup too |
Icredibly goooooooooood!!!!!!!!!
