<\/p>\nHey sweeties!! Laurie here today with one of my favorite things to make. The only time I don’t really care for soup is summertime – just like lots of other folks, I’m sure! Thankfully it’s fall and time to break out the tried and true favorite fall\/winter recipes. My absolute favorite is potato soup. It’s pretty awesome that it’s one of the easiest too!! Want the recipe? You’re in luck!!<\/p>\n
Add 6 cups of water to your pot. Add 7 teaspoons of chicken bouillon granules\/cubes. You’ll need to cut two 8 ounce packages of cream cheese into cubes. Add the cream cheese and cook and stir until the cheese is melted.![\"\"](\"http:\/\/img.photobucket.com\/albums\/v729\/natelaurie\/22.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
Add one package (30 ounces) of frozen hashbrown potatoes, thawed. Add 1 1\/2 cups cubed, fully cooked ham.![\"\"](\"http:\/\/img.photobucket.com\/albums\/v729\/natelaurie\/32.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
Next add 1 teaspoon of garlic powder and 1 teaspoon of dill weed. You can also add 1\/2 cup of chopped onion, but I choose to omit that since I’m feeding some picky eaters!! Bring to a boil and then reduce heat and simmer uncovered for about 20 minutes. It’s also a great soup to put in the crock pot and cook on low for a few hours. That’s actually the way that I usually do it because it thickens up nicely and it is so creamy!!<\/p>\n
And now for my next order of business, Layout of the Week!! Yay!! I loved so so many layouts this week, but after look through 40 plus pages of layouts, I couldn’t help but keep coming back to this layout by suladesign.<\/p>\n
