Embracing Fall!
This was the perfect soup to make for my first-soup-of-the-season soup. I was able to go to the garden and rummage through for just the right ingredients to make the most perfect and satisfying combination. Mr T even seemed to whole-heartedly agree on this one.
I added some fresh (peeled) tomatoes and a bit of sage along with a sprinkling of our favorite kitchen ingredient…
I have been really mourning the loss of my garden due to freezing temperatures each night. But, I just picked all of this about 10 minutes ago, so you can see that there is still some goodness to be had.
I encourage you to try this recipe even if it means going to the store {or your local farmer’s market} to pick up your fresh ingredients. I can’t wait to have left-overs for lunch with the fresh whole wheat bread that I made to go with it.
I’ve taken this recipe out of a cookbook that I’ve had for 15+ years and I love it. I also have the book shown (in the link), Heart and Soul…love it. I see there is a third that I should probably pick up…
Ohhhh, potato soup! One of my fall (and winter) favorites! Your recipe sounds great, I think I’ll try it! (and of course desert will be the applesauce donuts!)
I think that the end of the garden (I’ll call it the passing) is always a little melancholy. But it looks like yours is still holding out!
Thanks for sharing!
I also have this cookbook, it was given to me by a very very dear friend. I recognized it immediately!
Hope you make it to our Funky Junk Sisters Show in Puyallup. It is only 2 weeks away. We have doubled the shows size, 90+ vendors!

mmmm…sounds yummy! It’s the perfect weather for soup, a little chilly and gray 🙂
mmmmm…looks promising. My first soup of the season was chicken with okra and tomatoes. It was wonderful. It’s about time for another pot. This potato soup recipe would be a good “next” one. Soup is one of my favorite things about the cooler months of the year. It’s such comfort food.
