My Favorite Potato Soup for an Almost Snow Storm

This is my favorite Potato Soup ever.  It's so good I can eat 4 bowls without blinking.  I hope you love it too!

Ingredients:

5-6 Medium sized potatoes peeled and cut into small cubes
2 Vidalia Onions chopped
1/2 a stick of butter
2 Tbsp. of flour
2 Bay leaves
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
3 Tbsp. chopped fresh parsley (or dried)
Salt & Pepper to taste
8 cups of chicken stock (or 8 cups water and 8 chicken bouillon cubes)
2 cups of milk
Optional Garnish (Bacon, Croutons, Shredded Cheddar Cheese, scallions)

Directions:

Melt the butter in a large soup pot, add the vegetables and saute on medium heat for 10-12 minutes.  Add flour and stir until just mixed.  Add chicken broth.  Add spices, salt and pepper.  Simmer for 30-45 minutes or until vegetables are tender.  Add milk and heat at medium heat until hot.  Serve immediately.  Garnish with croutons, shredded cheese and/or scallions.  Enjoy!
