Sidney's Potato Soup Recipe

In honor of girls' night, I decided to share one of my best friend's potato soup recipe! 

It's not a homestyle potato soup, it's more like the Zuppa Toscana from Olive Garden, but it is delicious!

Sidney's Potato Soup




Ingredients:

2 lbs ground beef
1/2 gallon of water 
32 oz chicken broth
12 chicken bouillon cubes
1/2 onion
4 cloves garlic, minced
5 lbs potatoes, cut into large cubes
Fresh parsley, minced
1/2 pint cream 
Salt, pepper, oregano to taste
Directions:

Combine water, chicken broth, bouillon cubes, 1/2 onion, 1/2 garlic, salt, pepper, and oregano in a large pot, bring to a boil, let simmer for 30 minutes.

In a separate pan, sautée the remaining onion and garlic in olive oil or bitten until tender. Add ground beef and cook until browned. When cooked, add to the broth and let simmer for 30 minutes.

After 30 minutes, add peeled/diced potatoes and let simmer for another 30 minutes or until potatoes are cooked.

Last, add the parsley and cream. Let cool and serve! Sidney likes to serve it with grated Parmesan cheese and garlic bread!
