The cooler days are creeping in here in Kentucky and it’s definitely feeling like fall and that’s totally okay with me! After the hot humid summer days, I’m always excited to think about cozying up with a warm blanket, a mug of hot apple cider (or hot chocolate)… after a warm bowl of my favorite soup.
What is my favorite soup? Well, on any given day, the answer to that question prompts a different answer! I love, love, love soups of many kinds! White chicken chili, chicken tortilla soup, tomato chili, chicken noodle… you just can’t go wrong with any of these homemade, traditional comfort-food soups! … BUT today, I am sharing another one of my favorite soups that I haven’t mentioned yet. Yep, you got it! This thick and creamy potato soup is so amazingly easy to whip together that you can even cook up a pot on a busy weeknight! I call it my “Super Easy Thick & Creamy Potato Soup” and it deserves to be decorated with toppings of shredded cheese, bacon bits, and sliced green onions!
