Happy St. Patty's Day
We are going to try this for the first time tonight. I thought it sounded pretty St. Patricey. It also looks fast, easy and delicious!
Ingredients:
3 1/2 cups peeled & diced potatoes
1/3 cup diced celery
1/3 cup finely chopped onion
3/4 cup diced cooked ham
3 1/4 cups water
2 T chicken bouillon granules
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp ground pepper
5 T butter
5 T all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
Directions:
Combine the potatoes, celery, onion, ham & water in a stockpot. Bring to a boil, then cook over medium heat until potatoes are tender, about 10-15 minutes. Stir in the chicken bouillon, salt & pepper.
In a separate saucepan, melt butter over medium-low heat. Whisk in flour with a fork and cook, stirring constantly until thick, about 1 minute. Slowly stir in milk as not to allow lumps to form. Continue stirring over medium-low heat until thick, 4-5 minutes.
Stir the milk mixture into the stockpot and cook soup until heated through. Serve immediately.

We had this last night and it was delicious!!! It did not turn out as thick as I thought it would, I was expecting clam chowder thickness. I would put in less pepper too. But otherwise it was fabulous and definitely a keeper.
I made this last night. MMmm, good!
I didn't measure the potatoes or ham. Just chopped some up.
