Healthy Potato Soup
Healthy potato soup that is very easy to make. Made without butter or cream to make it healthier than your regular potato soup recipe.
Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 large onion, diced
- 3 lbs red potatoes, peeled and cut in half
- 6 cups reduced sodium chicken broth
- 3 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
- 1 Tbsp dried oregano
- 3 Tbsp salted butter
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- 3 Tbsp all-purpose flour
- paprika and dill to sprinkle on top
Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat the oil on medium heat. Cook the onions until fragrant and transparent. Set aside.
- In a large saucepan, mix together the potatoes and the chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and allow to simmer until the potatoes are soft, around 15-20 minutes.
- Using a potato masher or a hand mixer, mash (or mix) the potatoes until they reach your desired texture. Add in the onions, salt, paprika and nutmeg and stir to combine. Set aside.
- In a small saucepan, melt the butter until browned and fragrant. Add in the vegetable broth and flour, and mix until thickened. Once the mixture is thickened, add into the soup and mix well.
- Bring the soup to a low simmer, and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
- Serve into bowls, sprinkling extra paprika and dill on top.
