About a month ago, I was thinking about potato soup and wished I could have a bowl. The thought quickly went out of my head as I had tons of things to do in getting ready to head for Texas to help my daughter with the grandkids during their spring break. Not seeing them since Christmas had been a stretch this grandma couldn't bear any longer.
After my visit, I was home again and accidentally triggered an allergy cold when I mowed my yard with my new lawnmower. an old fashion push mower. I was sick, couldn't breathe, runny nose, no taste buds working, headache and facial pressure
The one thing that always made me feel better was pipping hot potato soup. Yet I didn't feel like taking the time to make it when, 💡 moment, I realized I had an Instant Pot. It literally took just a few minutes to chop up my veggies, add water, butter, seasonings, and Osem©️ dry chicken consomme to the mixture and 4 minutes later I had pipping hot soup ready to eat. I was a happy camper for sure. The soup was so wonderful that I had two bowlfuls. I made just enough for three bowls.
