Mashed Potato Soup with Croutons

Peg's Salt Mashed Potato Soup with Croutons

This is just so easy and delicious, using leftover mashed potatoes and stale bread. Mashed Potato Soup Proportions can be adjusted based on how many leftover mashed potatoes and servings you are looking for. I based this one on 3 c. leftover potatoes (which makes 2 servings) but use your judgment and play with it until the consistency is right.

• In a medium saucepan, saute 1/3 c. each of chopped celery and onion in 1 T. butter or oil. When they're tender, add 1/2 c. of chicken stock (or milk or mixture of both) and a pinch of Peg's Salt and pepper.
• Reheat 3. c. leftover mashed potatoes in the microwave so they're just warm, not hot. Add a cup of the potatoes to the onion/celery mix and whisk until smooth.
• Continue to add the rest of the mashed potatoes, thinning with stock as you go. It should take about 1 can (15 oz.) of chicken stock. Stir until warm and smooth and pinch in Peg's Salt to taste. Serve with homemade croutons!

Homemade Croutons
Once you try these, there is no reason to buy croutons at a store. Thanks to Kirsten Sherk for posting the crouton recipe on the Peg's Salt Facebook page.
• Just cut your old bread to the size you want.
• Spray with oil or melt butter in a roasting pan and toss the bread cubes in it.
• Sprinkle with Peg's Salt. Roast at 275 for 30 minutes or until done. Stir regularly.

Follow the Instructions!

This is the coolest way to make the best-tasting popcorn at home. And it's so easy to fix and clean up after because the popper can just be tossed in the dishwasher. But follow the instructions, especially the one about standing at the microwave until the popping stops. You don't want to burn your popcorn. And use good judgment as to how much popcorn salt to use initially. You can always sprinkle a little more on top if you didn't put enough in the popper initially.

Thank you for sharing your positive experience with our microwave popcorn popper. We appreciate your helpful tips as well. We hope you continue to enjoy delicious and hassle-free popcorn with our popper and with Peg's Salt!

Try This: Seasoned Cashews

I have found a bunch of uses for Peg's No-Salt, but here's the best one: seasoned cashews. You can buy raw, unsalted cashews on Amazon for cheap. Mix one pound in a bowl with a little olive oil (2 Tbsp.), Peg's No-Salt (2 Tbsp.) and Peg's Popcorn Salt (1/2 tsp.), Roast on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet at 300F for about 20 minutes. Then sprinkle another 1/2 tsp. of Peg's popcorn salt on them and let cool. And if you truly want to show your friends and neighbors how much you love them, give these seasoned cashews at Christmas. It works.
