Equipment

  • Great Value Sliced Potatoes, 14.46 Oz - Walmart.com
  • Campbell's�Condensed�Healthy Request�Cream of Celery Soup, 10.5 Ounce Can - Walmart.com
  • Great Value 2% Reduced Fat Milk, Half Gallon, 64 fl oz - Walmart.com
  • Frigo Shaved Parmesan Cheese, 5 oz - Walmart.com

Ingredients

  • 6 cans of sliced or diced potatoes or 6 Potatoes sliced or diced
  • 2 cans of Cream of Celery
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 cups water
  • 2 TBSP Parmesan Cheese
  • Optional: 1 diced celery stalk and 1/2 diced onion

Instructions

  • Dump potatoes into a pot. If using canned, drain and rinse them to reduce sodium. Add celery and onion if you opted for those.
  • Fill with water that barely covers the tops of the potatoes
  • Boil and then simmer until potatoes are soft enough to eat. Usually about 5 to 10 minutes with canned potatoes. Can be up to an hour with fresh potatoes depending on how thick you sliced them.
  • Dump some of the water so that about 2 cups of water remain with the potatoes. It doesn't have to be too exact, but if you wanted to be more exact, dump hot water into a 2 cup pyrex cup, and then dump the rest, and then re-add the 2 cups. If you do not have milk, you may want to keep 3 cups of water in there instead.
  • Add the Cream of Celery Soup & Milk & 2 TBSP of Parmesan and Stir.
  • Cook for 5 additional minutes.
  • Top with anything you like. We like shredded cheddar, bacon bits, and parsley.

Notes

  • If you use heavy whipping cream instead of milk, you'll get a soupier substance, but it's so rich it can nauseate, but worth it.
  • You can replace potatoes with cauliflower (even frozen cauliflower) and it's souper good but not as coveted as the potatoes.
