Soups On....Again

So remember my last post when I said that Sharon likes to live on soup when the temperature dips? Well, yeah....here is another soup recipe. I call it Red Potato Soup.


I must admit though, this is a pretty good soup recipe I came up with. We like potato soup (and anyone from Ireland loves ANYTHING with potatoes in it), so I want to share it with you. It is a chunky soup made with...you guessed it Red Potatoes and it is very filling. A bowl of this soup paired with a nice hearty bread and you'll be full for the rest of the evening and ready for a good night's sleep.

I wish I could get real Irish potatoes, especially the ones that are grown in County Down where Sharon lived. Those potatoes are not just as dense than other varieties and they have a very soft skin, much like Red Potatoes. The soil there is very dark, rich and warm. And because the soil is warmer there than many places in Northern Ireland, they can harvest more potatoes more frequently. They are fresher and tastier and abundant.

Here is the recipe.


Well, that is all for now. Coming soon will be a post with one of my all time favorite foods (Mexican) and one of my favorite recipes (New Mexico style Stacked Enchiladas).

If you like what you've seen so far, tell you friends and subscribe to my post. You'll be notified automatically when I put something up on my blog. And if you have tried making and eating any of the recipes, let me know what you think about it (there is a section at the bottom of the page for comments). If you have any recipes you want to share, please send it to me with a story about it (why it is important to you and your family) and I will get it onto the blog.

So until then, I'll be in the kitchen.
