Potato Soup

It doesn’t look as good as it tastes, but trust me when I tell you it is some good on a cold wet day.  It just warms up your insides.

2 slices bacon coated with fresh cracked peppercorns

1 large onion, chopped

2 stalks celery, chopped

2 cups shredded green cabbage

3 medium potatoes, peeled and chopped

1 small sweet potato, peeled and diced

1 cup cooked mashed potatoes

2 cups beef broth

1 cup German Riesling wine

1 tsp nutmeg

1 cup dry non fat milk (fill to 1¾ line with water)

Cook bacon in Dutch oven; remove and place bacon on paper towel to drain.  Add onion and celery to bacon grease and cook until opaque.  Add cabbage, potatoes, beef broth, wine and nutmeg; bring to boil.  Reduce heat, cover and simmer for one hour or until potatoes are tender.  Combine dry milk and water and mix well, pour into soup and cook just until well mixed and heated thoroughly.
