Mynyel Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 I want to make some tonight for dinner however there isn't much in potato soup so what else would be good to eat with it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunnyDays Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 We usually do a nice loaf of hot bread (or rolls) and a side salad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farrar Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Definitely a side salad. It needs something green, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelle in MO Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 We usually make grilled ham and cheese or just grilled cheese, plus fruit and raw veggies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keniki Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 A salad always goes well. We've been adding hamburger and cheese to our potato soup lately. That has been a hit here! The raw veggies sound good too. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCoffeeChick Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 I make beer bread to go along with mine. 3 C flour (really good with half wheat/half white) 4 t. Baking powder 1/3 C brown or white sugar 1 bottle of beer (best with a pale beer) 1/4 C. Melted butter Mix first 4 ingredients, pour into greased loaf pan. Pour melted butter on top. Bake at 375 for 50 to 55 minutes, until loaf is golden colored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoggirl Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 I like a spinach salad with a creamy soup. With strawberries, glazed walnuts, and Gorgonzola cheese, and a TANGY dressing. I think you need something without a creamy salad dressing since potato soup is creamy. I like the Brianna Blush Wine Vinaigrette on this salad. So, yes. I agree on salad, I am just being more specific (bossy!!!) on what *kind* of salad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tap Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Corn bread here! Dh will use saltines if we don't have corn bread, but it is not prefered. We just finished off a huge pot this morning. It is breakfast food for my kids as well as a dinner food. LOL We don't eat salad with soups. It is an either/or here, not both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*Michelle* Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 I love potato soup with a split onion bagel topped with thin slices of ham, tomato, provolone and herbs, broiled until melty and delicious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hillfarm Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 (edited) Way back when I was in a sorority in college, our house cook would always serve the most wonderful sandwiches with her potato soup. She mixed a bit of onion powder and celery seed into softened cream cheese and then crumbled cooked bacon into that to make a sandwich spread that she put on a hearty whole wheat bread. Yum!!! I still appreciate that she gave each of us girls the opportunity to cook with her one evening per month so that we could learn her recipes. I got several great ones from her that I still use these many years later. Edited October 25, 2012 by hillfarm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cjzimmer1 Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 I made potato soup for supper too but I just throw everything in the soup. So tonight's version (it changes depending on what I have on hand) has potatoes, onions, celery, carrots, red peppers, kale, corn and bacon in it. I added fresh bread but don't feel the need for anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheReader Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Won't help you for last night's, but I usually add sausage and some sort of greens right to the potato soup. Sausage for the full cook time, add fresh greens (spinach, kale, arugula, etc.) just at the end. Turns it into a very hearty meal, serve with bread and you're fine.

Tracy in Ky Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 I vote for salad as well--with lots of crunchy veggies. Adding in some cheese or nuts will help balance out the hit of carbs your system will get from the potatoes :) Sounds yummy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
