And yes, adding in a bit of ham, or crispy bacon and a bit of cheese would be just perfect. I just read above in your comment that your son was ill, I will pray that all is well! Those things are so scary! Hugs to you today dear friend!

God has blessed me with the ability and knowledge to make do. He's also provided gifts from different sources and a living situation that help us to live beyond our income without incurring debt.

Potato soup requires 7 lbs. of potatoes at our house and it sure would be nice to save some chopping time! It's great to see a truly frugal recipe---and I agree that it's important to know how to make do in a poverty situation. Most of us will go through them...some of us many, many times. :) Love you, Sarah Collerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06207022145433487536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4659572515687798778.post-35436987134998197982017-02-25T00:18:39.136-06:002017-02-25T00:18:39.136-06:00Good way to use up leftovers!Good way to use up leftovers!Mrs. Laura Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17334381585683324912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4659572515687798778.post-45872122422577063102017-02-25T00:18:17.678-06:002017-02-25T00:18:17.678-06:00Me too, Rhonda.
