has to be this one. It's so delicious. It tastes even more deeply satisfying when served in a bread bowl. To experience it at its best, however, take that bread bowl and sit yourself down on the hearth of your fireplace with a warm fire going and look out the window at the snow falling. Yep... that's the absolute best time to eat this soup.
Creamy Potato Cheese Soup
4 C diced potatoes
1 C diced celery
1 C diced carrots
1/2 C chopped onions
2 Tbsp chopped parsley
1/2 C butter
1/2 C flour
1 quart milk
2 tsp. salt
1 lb grated cheddar cheese
2 C chopped ham
Boil the vegetables and parsley together in 3 cups of water for 10 minutes. DO NOT DRAIN OFF LIQUID.
Meanwhile, make the cream sauce. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan. Add the flour and salt and whisk until well incorporated. Add the milk and whisk together. Bring to a boil. As soon as it starts boiling, add the cream sauce to the vegetables.
Add the cheese cheese and 2 cups chopped ham and stir until cheese is melted and all ingredients are combined.

That sounds really yummy, I am making corn chowder for dinner tonight. I like it when it gets a little cooler and its time to start making soup!
Well look at that, a delicious soup WITHOUT cream of mystery soup. Who'da thunk?!
