Loaded Potato Soup

  

Ingredients:

4 baked potatoes or 1 1/2 pounds potatoes, cooked
1 tablespoon tub margarine
1 medium onion (coarsely chopped) (about 1 cup)
1/2 cup green pepper, chopped (optional)
2 cups homemade chicken broth, or 1 can (14.5 ounces) low sodium chicken broth
1 cup nonfat milk
1 cup frozen peas, thawed
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
4 slices (3 ounces) American cheese
  Optional garnishes: Sliced green onion, bacon bits, shredded cheese

Instructions:

  1. Remove skins and mash potatoes into small pieces to make about 3 cups. Set aside.
  2. Melt margarine in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir in onion and green pepper, if desired. Cook until the vegetables begin to soften (about 5 minutes).
  3. Stir in the broth and heat to a boil. Stir in milk, potatoes, peas, and pepper. Heat through, stirring occasionally.
  4. Add the cheese slices. Cook and stir about 2 minutes until cheese melts. Add more milk if soup is thicker than you prefer.
