Potato-Cheese Soup

4 medium peeled potatoes
2 carrots, peeled
1 onion, chopped
1-2 Tbsp oil or butter
3 C milk
1/2 - 1 C grated sharp cheddar cheese
1 - 2 tsp salt, to taste
1/4 tsp pepper
1 Tbsp chopped parsley

Cook the potatoes and carrots in water to cover in a large pan until soft. Saute the onion in the oil or butter. In a blender puree, in batches the potatoes, carrots and onion with potato water (you probably will not use all the water. I puree it so the potatoes are thick)

Return puree to pan and add milk, cheese, and seasonings. If the mixture is too thick add more of the potato water. Heat until cheese is melted and soup is piping hot. DO NOT BOIL soup.

Makes 8 to 10 cups

Thai Chicken

2 ½ pounds skinless chicken pieces *
1 cup hot salsa **
¼ cup peanut butter (I use crunchy peanut butter)
2 tbsp lime juice
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp minced fresh ginger (or you can use dry ground ginger)

Hot cooked rice
½ cup peanuts, chopped ***
2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro

Place chicken in crock-pot. Combine salsa, peanut butter, lime juice, soy sauce and ginger; pour over chicken

Cover; cook on LOW 8 to 9 hours or on HIGH 3 to 4 hours, or until done

Serve chicken and sauce over rice; sprinkle with peanuts and cilantro.

* I use drumstricks

** If you don’t have hot salsa, you can use mild salsa and add a bit of crushed red chili flakes.

*** I use crunchy peanut butter, thus I don’t add chopped peanuts. Or if you use smooth peanut butter, it’s up to you to add chopped peanuts or not. Personally, I don’t.


Bon appétit!
