I have been on a potato kick lately. I almost feel like Bubba with his shrimp obsession in the movie Forrest Gump. Breakfast potatoes for hash. Potato skins in my air fryer. My Mom’s party potato casserole. Classic baked potatoes with steak. I’ve been eating a lot of potatoes lately and can’t seem to get enough. I found this soup recipe in a Cooking Light magazine a long time ago. I made a few changes to that recipe over the years and have fixed this soup many, numerous times. As I have been going through recipe boxes a lot lately, I decided I should finally post this potato soup recipe here.

  3. Whisk in the milk and simmer until starting to thicken, about 8 minutes

  4. Stir in the mashed potatoes, salt and pepper. Simmer for about 5 minutes.

  5. Reduce the heat to low and stir in the chives, one cup of the cheddar cheese, and the sour cream. Heat through.
