My sister makes this soup ...and now my daughter does...and maybe you would like to try it too...
6-8 potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 # bacon, chopped and fried
1 c. celery
1 pt. heavy cream
2-3 c. milk
3 T. margarine or butter
4 T. flour
potato flakes (instant) to thicken
Cook the potatoes until tender in boiling water. Drain and set aside. In a large soup pot melt the marg. or butter, saute celery for one minute. Stir in flour and whisk together with butter. Slowly add in cream, continuing to whisk. Add milk, bacon, and reserved cooked potatoes. Cook on medium heat allowing to slowly thicken. Add instant potato flakes to thicken more if necessary.
This is also good with cheese and/or chopped green onions on top. Enjoy!
