How To Make easy potato soup

Step 1

Let potatoes stand at room temperature for 1 hour.

Step 2

Put broth and gravy mix in deep stock pot on low heat.
Step 3

Dissolve gravy mix into broth and bring to boil.
Step 4

Once gravy is completely dissolved, add potatoes and reduce to low/medium heat.
Step 5

Simmer for 30 - 40 minutes until thickened and cream; stirring occasionally.
Step 6

Add Velveeta cheese and stir until melted and creamy.
Step 7

You may top with bacon pieces and/or shredded cheese if you wish. (I usually don't do this because it is delicious without it. Who needs extra calories!!)
Step 8

Delicious with a crusty bread or baquette.
