Panera's Cream Cheese Potato Soup

Ingredients:
4 c. chicken broth
4 c. peeled and cubed potatoes
1/4 c. minced onion
1/2 t. seasoning salt
1/4 t. pepper
1/4 t. ground red pepper
1 (8oz) package cream cheese, cut into chunks

Directions:
1. Combine broth, potatoes, onion, and spices.
2. Boil on medium heat until potatoes are tender.
3. Smash a few potatoes to release starch for thickening.
4. Reduce to low heat.
5. Add cream cheese.
6. Heat, stirring frequently, until cheese melts.

From Food.com
Trust me, the cream cheese will melt in about five minutes.  Top with things like green onion, bacon bits or chives.  Good soup for a cold night.

  1. This was delicious! We made it last night as the blizzard came in. The best part was I had all the ingredients already, so no trip to the store was necessary.
