This might be the easiest and healthiest method for how to make potato soup. This soup is thick and creamy, yet doesn’t start with a roux – so it’s perfect for those that eat gluten-free! The key to thickening this soup is to puree some of it while it’s cooking. It’s a genius method that I have to credit my brother with (actually… the entire recipe is basically his).
Another trick is to boil the onions in salt water prior to adding the other ingredients; this softens them up nicely (I’m not a fan of crunchy onions in my soups :))
But the best thing about this soup is how cheap it is! This will easily cost less than $5 to make. Top with some shredded cheese, and serve with a good bread and you have a delicious meal.
Have you grabbed my freezer meal plans, yet? I might be biased but I think they are pretty amazing! They have saved our dinner hour for years now. Check them out!

We have made this recipe many times and it is just better every time! So delicious!
Thanks for a great soup recipe!
Could you specify how much water to add in the beginning, and do I drain the water prior to adding the other ingredients?
