Recipe: Easy Potato Soup

Easy Potato Soup

3 medium to large potatoes
1 medium onion
1/2 tsp pepper (or to taste)
1/2 tsp salt or garlic salt (or to taste)
1/4 cup milk
2 tsp butter or margarine

Wash the potatoes and cut them in fairly large bite size chunks. (I don't peel them, though my Mother always did).

Peel the onion and cut in wedges until they are small pieces.

Cover the potatoes and onions with water in a pot, add the pepper and salt (you may insist on scrimping on the salt but make sure it has enough pepper.)

Cook until the potatoes are done.

Turn off the heat and add the milk and butter. Then mash the potatoes just a little to make it thick.

I guessed at the quantities but give it a try. It's real easy.
