[QUOTE="donna723, post: 359034, member: 1883"] I thought I already posted this but I guess not. Does anybody like homemade soup? I cut this recipe out of the paper a while ago but just tried it a few days ago and I [U]loved[/U] it. The ingredients are very simple and inexpensive, it only takes about a half hour to make, and it's WONDERFUL!!! The recipe doesn't make a whole lot, maybe three big bowlsful, so for a family you would want to double or even triple it. And trust me on this one, you WILL want to eat the leftovers! It's sort of a homemade potato soup with asparagus and cheese in it. They said the recipe came out of an old Mennonite cookbook. I don't know what a half-pound of asparagus is because it comes in bunches (are the bunches one pound?) - I used about half of a 'bunch'. You can use a different kind of cheese if you want to and if you don't like asparagus you can use some other kind of vegetable. You don't even have to put another vegetable in it besides the potatoes and onions. I'm going to make it again tonight and put little pieces of cooked, cubed chicken breast in it. [B]Asparagus-Potato Soup[/B] 1-3/4 cups (one can) chicken broth 3 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed 1/3 cup chopped onion 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 lb. of asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1/2 inch pieces 1-1/2 cups milk 2 tablespoons flour 1 cup Colby cheese - cubed or sliced 1. Combine the broth, potatoes, onion and salt in a large saucepan. Cook over medium heat until the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes. Add the asparagus and cook 10 minutes more. 2. Whisk the milk and flour together well in a small bowl and then whisk into the broth mixture, cooking until it's slightly thickened. Stir in the cheese until melted. [/QUOTE]
