Foxx's Potato Recipes

[JenH2001]

Foxx, I fixed your cheesy potatoes and was quite nervous as to how they would turn out because I can't cook or at least I don't cook. I had to do half without sourcream and half with since my husband doesn't like sour cream. I have to say that it was delicious my husband and I both enjoyed it. I was happy that I actually fixed something that required more than a cup of water. Thanks for the recipe!

Here's a good potato soup.

3 Yukon Gold potatoes, about 1 pound, peeled and cut into 1-inch dice
3-4 thick leeks, white and light green parts only, cleaned and sliced thin
1 quart water
1 bay leaf
3 sprigs of thyme, tied together
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 bunch chives, sliced thin, about 1/2 cup

Place all ingredients except chives into medium saucepan and bring to a simmer. Cook for 20-30 minutes or until potatoes can be easily smashed against side of pot with wooden spoon. Remove thyme and bay leaf, and puree with immersion blender until very smooth. Serve in bowls with chives sprinkled on top.

Sticks to your Ribs Potato Soup

10-12 Yukon Gold Potatoes, peeled and cubed (don't cut them too small...they will disintegrate)
1 big can Chicken Broth  (I cant remember the oz. amount...but its the big can size like what Juicy Juice comes in...lol)
2 cups water
3 stalks of celery, diced
3 carrots, peeled and diced
1 medium onion
1 stick of butter
1 quart heavy whipping cream
2 cups milk
6 slices of bacon, fried crispy and crumbled

In a large stock pot, over medium heat, melt the butter...add the onion, celery and carrots.  Cook until onion is clear.
Add Chicken broth and water; bring to a gentle boil...add potatoes. 
(The broth and water should cover the potatoes...add more if necessary.)
Continue to simmer, over medium heat for 10 minutes.
Reduce heat to low, add whipping cream and milk.  Season to taste.  (I usually only add freshly ground black pepper.)
Simmer for at least 30 minutes, or until potatoes and carrots are soft ( At this point, you can continue to let it cook over the lowest heat setting for up to an hour...flavor builds the more you cook it...)

During the cooking time, about 15 minutes before you are going to serve the soup, add the bacon.

Enjoy!  You can top it with some shredded cheddar and sour cream if you like...

This is one of my most favorite recipes ever...I make it for every function I have to attend, its super easy and everyone loves it!

Foxx's Cheesy Potatoes
1 bag of Orieda Potatoes O'Brien
16 oz. Sour Cream
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 can cream of chicken soup (sometimes I use cream of onion...depends on how savory you like things)
1 stick of butter

Preheat oven to 350.

Empty the bag of potatoes into a 13x9 cake pan...spread them evenly over the bottom of the pan.
Stir together the soup, sour cream and shredded cheese.
Carefully spread this mixture over the potatoes.
Melt the stick of butter and pour it over the top of everything  (it should float on top of the sour cream mixture).
Bake for 1 hour.

Enjoy!    O0
