Potato Soup

I believe this recipe originally came from Witney home economics class in high school and it has turned into a favorite at both mine and my mom's house! If it's a chilly winter day or a cool rainy day this is the perfect companion!

Potato Soup

4 Chicken bullion cubes

4 cups water

1 1/2 teaspoons parsley

1 1/2 teaspoons minced dried onion

1 carrot, peeled and grated

4 lg. potatoes peeled & cut into small cubes

Place above ingredients in a large saucepan, boil until potatoes are tender (30 min.s)

1 can evaporated milk

1/4 cup margarine

1/4 cup flour

melt margarine in a saucepan. Add flour mix until flour looks like paste. Add milk and stir until smooth. A wisk or whip works well for this. Slowly add to soup mixture and simmer for 5 minutes.

*It's important not to boil or cook at a high temp. as the milk and butter will separate.

Snicker Salad

If you like carmel apples you'll love this salad!

Snickers Salad

1- 12 oz. tub Cool Whip, thawed

1 c. milk

1 large package french vanilla pudding mix, instant

1 bag of mini-snickers(or your favorite caramel-filled candy bars)

3 apples (Granny Smith are my choice)

Chop the snickers into small chunks. In a mixing bowl, beat the milk and pudding mix for a few minutes, or until completely mixed and smooth. Fold in the cool whip with a spatula. Chunk up the apples into bite-sized pieces (I toss with a dash of lemon juice to keep from turning brown). Add the candy bars and apples to the cool whip mixture and fold them in. Refrigerate for a couple of hours before serving.
