MICROWAVE POTATO SOUP



Microwave Potato Soup image

Lately, Mom's been doing quite a bit of my cooking thanks to being sick, dizzy, and nauseated. Other than canned chicken noodle, grilled cheese, and other "easy on the tummy" foods, potato soup is one of those things I'm enjoying because it's not spicy. This microwave recipe is relatively fast and pretty good. It's very basic and is a great "starter" recipe to be altered in any way.
