Au Gratin Cheese Soup
From grandmacooks 15 years ago
- 25 minutes to make
- Serves 6
This recipe is from the back of a box of store-brand au gratin potatoes. Though it's certainly not homemade potato soup, it's a quick way to make a small amount of potato soup. Portion sizes are as a side dish, if it is the main dish I would say it only serves 3-4.
Ingredients
- 1 box Au Gratin potato mix (cheese sauce mix included) shopping list
- 1 can chicken broth (regular size 10 - 10 1/2 ounces, not large) shopping list
- 3 cups water shopping list
- 2/3 cup diced carrots shopping list
- 2/3 cup diced celery shopping list
- 1/2 cup light cream shopping list
How to make it
- In a large saucepan, mix together the potato slices and cheese sauce mix from the au gratin potato package, along with the chicken broth, water, carrots and celery (everything EXCEPT the cream).
- Stir occasionally while bringing to a boil.
- Reduce heat to medium low or low (depends upon your burners).
- Cover and simmer 25-30 minutes.
- Stir occaisionally during cook time .
- Soup is done when potatoes are tender.
- Remove from heat and stir in cream.

Now that's interesting! My husband makes his instant mashed spuds all the time and often puts too much liquid. I tease him that he's making potato soup (which is his favourite) but I never really thought about him making it that way! It's great th...more
