The ingredients for EZ Creamy Potato Soup are:

4 Med Russet Potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2in cubes
1 cup 2% milk
1 cup low-sodium stock, I used vegetable but you could use chicken
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 tsp salt - can add more to taste if you need
1/2 tsp pepper - can add more to tast if you need
1/2 tsp crushed red pepper (optional)
1/2 tsp paprika
1/3 cup 2% shredded cheddar cheese

Here is how you make EZ Creamy Potato Soup:

Makes 4 to 6 8oz servings.Bring potatoes, garlic, stock, milk, salt and pepper to a boil. Back down to a simmer and cover for 15-20 mins - until potatoes are fork tender. Put heat to low. Add 1/2 of soup mixture to food processor along with red pepper and paprika, if using. (be careful when processing hot food - use kitchen towel over top of opening in processor while processing to allow heat to escape!!!) Puree until really smooth!! Add puree back to soup mixture in pot and mix well. Should be creamy and smooth. If you don't like any potato chunks in your potato soup, feel free to puree the whole batch. I like some potato chunks in my soup. Add cheese and stir. Garnish with chives or scallions if you like. Also can garnish with a sprinkle of cheddar on each individual bowl. If feeling indulgent, can add a sprinkle of crumbled bacon (1/2 strip of cooked bacon adds about 20 cals and 2 g fat per serving) .
