Serves: 6-8
Cooking Time: 25 minutes

Made with:

Sensational Soy Smooth Original

1 cups Sensational Soy Smooth Original 250 ml
4 tbsp Lactantia Healthy Attitude Omega-3 Margarine 60 ml

  • In a large heavy bottomed saucepan over medium heat melt margarine. Add onions and cook until soft. Add potatoes and continue cooking for about 5 minutes, stir occasionally.
  • Add broth, thyme, and bacon. Broth should just cover potato mixture. Add more broth if necessary. Cover and simmer for about 25 minutes until potatoes are well done.
  • Mash cooked mixture with back of a large spoon or with a potato masher to achieve a slightly chunky consistency. Release of starch from potatoes will also help to thicken the soup.
  • Add SENSATIONAL SOY beverage and stir well until heated through.
  • Leftover soup should be stored covered in the refrigerator.

Customize the recipe:

  • Replace chicken broth with vegetable broth.
  • Recipe easily doubled or halved.
  • Replace margarine with butter.
  • Add ½ cup (125ml) of sour cream with SENSATIONAL SOY beverage for a tangier style soup.
  • Add 1 cup (250 ml) of corn kernels in the last 5-10 minutes of cooking potato mixture.
