Ingredients

• 5 Whole potatoes, peeled
• 5 Ounces (oz) chicken bouillon cubes
• 2.5 Quarts (qt) water
• 1 Pinch salt, to taste
• 1 Pinch pepper, to taste
• 0.125 Teaspoon (tsp) garlic powder
• 0.0625 Teaspoon (tsp) nutmeg, ground
• 1 Pint (pt) heavy whipping cream
• 3 Whole green onions, minced

Steps

1. In a large pot over high heat, combine the cubed potatoes, chicken bouillon cubes, and water. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and nutmeg. Stir to dissolve the bouillon cubes.
2. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
3. Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy whipping cream. Allow the soup to gently bubble for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
4. Add the minced green onions and stir well to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
