• Turn the heat to high and bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer for approximately 20 minutes or until the potatoes are very soft.
• Remove the soup and puree in a food processor or blender until smooth.

DEB'S GARLIC SOUP

Steps:

• Peel and chop garlic. Transfer to a medium saucepan, add chicken broth, and bring to a slight boil. Remove soup from the heat and cover with a lid; let stand for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, butter bread slices and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and paprika. Place in a toaster oven and toast on the medium setting (5 or 6) until crusty-just don't burn it. Remove toast from the oven and use a serrated knife to cut into small cubes.
• Divide bread cubes between 4 soup bowls. Sprinkle with sea salt and lemon-pepper seasoning. Use a ladle to stir soup, then scoop broth and garlic pieces and fill the bowls. Stir until bread cubes are well mixed, then serve.
