3/4 cup diced celery
4 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth or 4 cups vegetable broth
2 cups mashed potatoes, leftover

4 ounces shredded cheddar cheese (sharp is best)
1/2 teaspoon sea salt (or Kosher Salt)
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika

Steps:

  • Add oil to a large & deep (2-3 inches deep) saucepan or soup pot, set over medium-high heat. Add onion & celery, saute for 3-5 minutes or until softened. Add stock & simmer approximately 6 minutes, then add the left over mashed potatoes and bring to a simmer.
  • Using a hand blender or regular blender, puree soup until smooth (when using a regular blender, work in batches to prevent messy cleanups!). Add leftover corn, cauliflower or broccoli, Cheddar Cheese, salt, white pepper, & paprika (crumbled bacon pieces - if you have them). Stir to combine all well and allow the cheese to melt.
