clean-out-the-cupboard potato soup
(1 rating)
It all started with a couple of extra potatoes. Not enough to put in with a roast, not enough for a side dish. What to do? Then it came to me--potato soup! And I had several other odds and ends sitting around in the pantry and the fridge. Time to create something new and unique! 07-07-14
