"ROASTED POTATO SOUP"

Hey, this week will be a few of my "comfort recipies". I am having a minor surgery friday morning so the "kitchen will be closed for the weekend". The recipes are easy, healthy and freezer friendly. I may be out of the kitchen for a couple of days but I will still have my favorite meals. Enjoy!

Ingredients: 3 lrg sweet potatoes
6-8 golden potatoes
2 cloves garlic
2-3 cups chicken broth
1-2 cups milk

Pre-heat oven to 450*. Peel and chop potatoes and drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper. Crush garlic and mix well. Roast until tender and golden brown. In a large non-stick stew pot add potatoes and slightly mash using a potato masher. (Leave some chunks) Add chicken broth and simmer for about 20 minutes. Add milk until you get the consistency that you desire. I like for the soup to be thick and chunky where you see the beautiful colors of the potatoes. Serve in a bowl and garnish with sour creme or mozzarella cheese on top. Delish!

Tomorrow: " Bacon/Mushroom Casserole"

Design Tip:  This is a great tip for outside activities with your little ones. We all know the Easter Bunny will be coming soon and yard activites are right around the corner...recently found foam colored puzzle pieces that come in a carry bag. Conventient to put together and great for a comfortable outside mat for your little ones. They make great activity mats in your childs room as well.

Hint: For the "big kid" in your life you can purchase similiar mats at your local hardware store. They are in the flooring department and great for working/standing on in the garage etc. Link together as well.

Keep your design and construction q's coming. We're always glad to help. Have a blessed evening, Cat
