Creamy Irish Potato Soup Recipe for St. Patrick’s Day

In my quest to post more recipes, I wanted to share another one which contains that ever useful Swanson’s Chicken Broth. You may recall the Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes or White Wine Sauce Chicken I posted earlier this month for Valentine’s Day. Well, today I want to share a special soup that is great for St. Patrick’s Day. It would also be fabulous (I suspect) on a cold, snow day (like today). Take a look at this creamy Irish potato soup recipe from Campbell’s Kitchen.

Potato Soup

I think you could enjoy this recipe all winter long. However, we typically associate potatoes with the Irish. So, it’s even more fun to enjoy it around St. Patrick’s Day. I love the combination of chicken broth, milk, butter, and fresh vegetables for this recipe. I think it sounds yummy!
