Photo: Cheddar-Potato Soup Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 cup diced onion
- 1 cup diced celery
- 6 cups reduced-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
- 2 cups mashed potatoes
- 8 ounces shredded Cheddar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
- 1 teaspoon dry mustard
- Hot sauce, optional
Directions
Add oil to a large pot set over medium-high heat. Add onion and celery and saute for 2 to 3 minutes, or until they start to soften. Add stock and mashed potatoes and bring to a simmer.
Using a hand blender or regular blender, puree soup until smooth (when using a regular blender, work in batches to prevent messy cleanups!). Add Cheddar, salt, white pepper, dry mustard and hot sauce. Stir to combine and allow the cheese to melt.

We loved this recipe! Super easy and quick to make. We did add diced potatoes just because that's what we are "used to" in potato soup, but it wasn't necessary. Great dish!

I used 5 lbs of potatoes and boiled them before adding to the chicken stock. Also added bacon and garlic. Hand mashed the potatoes before adding the cheese and other ingredients. I thought it was a great consistency and had lots of flavor.

This was a good recipe. I revamped it a little bit. I boiled the potatoes just a little bit, until I could stick a fork thru them. I sauteed onions, celery and carrots and veggie bacon. Then I drained potatoes, added the veggies and veggie broth. I cooked that all together and then used my handheld blender to puree it. Then added a small amount of cheddar cheese and stirred until it melted. My family said it tasted like baked potato soup.
