Fast Potato Soup - Sharon Smith

1 pkg frozen hash brown potatoes (regular size pkg.)

1 can chicken broth  (I buy those boxes of chicken broth and actually use about 1/2 to 2/3 of the box)

1 can cream of chicken soup

1 can cream of celery soup

2 cups of water

2 cups of milk

1 sausage (fried and drained)  (OPTIONAL)

(salt and pepper to taste, if wanted)

 

I bring the chicken broth, chicken soup, celery soup, water and milk (I added 4 oz cream cheese to the pot I brought to the house) to a bubbly boil and then add the frozen hash browns. Stir in hash browns and break up. Bring to boil again then lower heat and cook approx. 1 hour

(stirring periodically to prevent sticking).

 

Serve with grated cheese, bacon bits, and chives (if desired).  Enjoy!!!!
