Dinner In A Hurry – Black Angus Potato Soup. This time of year it seems like the family is always in a hurry. So many activities for the kids and so many demands on the adults to keep it all afloat. Dinner time is one of the things I look forward to each day, but putting together a great meal in a hurry isn’t easy. With the weather getting cooler all over the country, some great belly-warming comfort food is always a winner.
Potato soup is always a favorite. We are a potato family to begin with. We have potatoes most every meal – fried, mashed or baked. It’s just one of our favorite sides. So a nice big pot of Potato Soup, some warm sourdough bread, and that is a fabulous meal to us.
