With a little nip in the air it is time to pull out those wonderful soup recipes!  This is one of many potato soup recipes.  You can reduce the pp values by reducing the potato and cheese portions.  If you have never tried the zero pp Garden Vegetable Soup recipe in your Getting Started book...it is a must.  The recipe is found on the last page of the KickStart Guide on page 87.
