Why This 3 Ingredient Potato Recipe is So Good

• It’s So Inexpensive to Make! You don’t need much to make this delicious and budget-friendly soup – just an onion, a couple of potatoes, some broth, and a bit of simmering. Delicious food doesn’t have to be expensive, and this simple soup is the perfect example!
• Potato Soup is Fun to Experiment With. Because this recipe is so simple, it’s fairly plain. That means that it’s the perfect canvas for adding other ingredients or seasonings.
• Make it Any Time. I always have the ingredients for this soup in my cupboards, so I can whip up a pot whenever I need to feed hungry kids (or myself!) in a hurry.

Tips and Tricks for Making Simple 3 Ingredient Potato Soup

• Sauteeing the onions and potatoes in a little bit of oil before boiling them helps to pull out more of their flavor, and means that the soup will be ready quicker.
• To make this recipe even more economical, make your own vegetable stock. Try this recipe for vegetable broth, or just simmer some onions and whatever other veggie scraps you have with water for an hour or more to make a flavorful stock that you can store in the freezer.
• You can also use chicken stock to make potato soup!
• If you’d like to make a creamy 3 ingredient potato soup, you have a couple of options. First, try blending some or all of the soup with a stick blender. This will give it a thick, creamy texture. Second, you could turn this into a 4 ingredient potato soup recipe and stir in a little bit of heavy cream at the end.

What to Serve With Potato Soup

Try Soup and Salad: Potato soup goes great with Kale Apple Slaw or your favorite greens tossed with homemade salad dressing.
