Here is my cast iron Dutch oven, full of potato soup. You may remember I bought two bags of potatoes and said I would need to eat them a lot for a while. That is what I am doing. The soup has nice chunks of ham, as well. We cooked a ham just before Christmas. You possibly see the parsley floating on top. I am going to serve some to hubby and I, and let the rest cool to have on another day. This is perfect for the cold weather.

@BarBaraPrz I like it with basil on top, or I like to stir in a little salsa for a zing.

Soup comes in so many varieties. I like chicken tortilla soup. It seems we shall be eating soup of one kind or another for several days.

I should also make some potato salad. A roast would be good with potatoes, too.

It is one that stays well with you. Not sure you would want hot soup in your hot weather, though.

@JudyEv I have not ever made cold soup. I should in the summer though as that is when we have so much fresh produce.

@GardenGerty No, that's true although I do like soup. Very occasionally I make cold soup in summer - perhaps cucumber or tomato soup.

Do you find it freezes well. I always heard potatoes get yucky when frozen. Of course that does not make sense cause french fries and hash browns come frozen.
