french potato soup
This is an easy way to impress your guests. I have served it at cocktail parties in cold weather. Also as a first course at dinner, substituting it as the starch.

For such a simple soup, we couldn't believe how much we loved this potato soup. Cooking the potatoes, green onions, and parsley in oil ahead of time helps the potatoes soak up tons of flavor. Rich and creamy, this potato soup will warm you right up. Serve with your favorite crusty bread or a few croutons. This potato soup will really surprise you; it’s not just your run-of-the-mill recipe.
