Velveeta Potato Soup image

I know what you're thinking....another potato soup...that's what I thought too until I tasted it. This is good served with "Jiffy" cornbread muffins, especially on cool autumn nights or cold winter nights. Positively a comfort food. This recipe is from a lady that I worked with at school.

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 -5 potatoes (cubed)
2 -3 carrots (grated)
1 onion (chopped)
parsley

salt
pepper
garlic powder (to taste)
1 can cream of chicken soup

Steps:

  • Put potatoes, carrots, onion and seasonings in a large pot.
  • Cover with water and cook till potatoes are tender.
