Recipe Name Potato Soup Submitted by MammaPooh Recipe Description Last year we began experimenting with a lot of soups. This is one that I created & it's different every time. My daughter had TMJ and was unable to chew for nearly a year. Thank God her surgery was completely successful. But we still enjoy soup!
