I have to share this soup recipe with you – it is my absolute new favorite. For this carrot, celery and potato cream soup you only need a few ingredients and it is really easy to make. I promise. I love making soups for lunch, because after breakfast I get busy with something and when lunchtime rolls around I don’t want to be in the kitchen cooking for hours and then cleaning up. With this soup recipe, you will be done cooking, eating, and cleaning in under 1 hour. You’re welcome 😉
Have a great weekend! XoXo

The whole family loved it! Even the picky eight year old…!
Hi Eva, I am thrilled to hear your family enjoyed the recipe! Thanks for your feedback 🙂
Made the recipe as written, but added 1/4c sour cream instead of half & half as that was what I had on hand, and added a splash of white balsamic vinegar to brighten everything up. Really good! Will make again. 🙂
just made for dinner tonight…IT WAS AWWWWWSOME!! it was a hit with everyone. its going in my soup “catalog”!
Absolutely delicious soup – just finished my 2nd bowl. This is a WOW soup – will definitely make again. Thank you so much.
Hello !
I read the recipe and i’m going to do this soup because it seem to be delisius.
Thank you.
Just made this for lunch, my husband and I LOVED it. I didn’t have a lot of chicken broth (3/4 cup) so I just topped up with hot water and some leftover soup. I also didn’t have cream so I added a bit of skim milk. I am also sensitive to onion and garlic, so I used a bunch of chives and a splash of garlic infused olive oil instead.
The soup was a delight :), i will definitely be making more in the future, who knew something so simple and healthy could be so filling!
I also calculated the calories based on my tweaks of this recipe and it was around 902kcal, so each serving would be around 180kcal :).
Thank you so much for the recipe, it is very delicious.
I made this recipe to use up leftover mashed potatoes from Sunday’s dinner….what a great way to clean up the leftovers. It’s tasty, easy, and economical to make. Thanks for sharing.
