CHUNKY POTATO SOUP

CHUNKY POTATO SOUP  

3 cups diced potatoes
1/4 cup chopped onions
1/4 cup chopped carrots (optional)
2 cups milk
3 cups water
3 tbsp. butter
1 tbsp. fresh parsley
1 tbsp. fresh cilantro
1/3 cup ground Parmesan cheese
2 tbsp. all purpose flour
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. pepper
1 tsp Mrs. Dash original
2 cubes of chicken bouillon
2 tsp. Italian seasoning

Bring water to a boil, add fresh herbs and vegetables. Let boil for 5 minutes, add milk, butter, boil for 3 minutes more; add spices and seasonings, then add flour and cheese.
Stir very well so that the flour and cheese do not clump; continue stirring.

Serve when vegetables are tender and flavors are well blended.

Serve topped with cheddar cheese and add a few saltine crackers.

You will love this! It is my favorite soup! Perfect for guests, a romantic dinner, or just relaxing in the afternoon.
