Directions:

  1. Put cubed potatoes in a soup pot and cover with vegetable broth. Bring to a boil and cook until sticking a fork the potatoes meets with little or no resistance. (Don't bother covering the potatoes. It won't boil or cook any faster, and the starch in the potatoes will just make it boil over and make a mess.).
  2. Meanwhile, melt margarine in a large saute pan over medium-low heat. Add the turkey bacon and cook through. Add onion and celery and saute on medium-high until tender.
  3. Also meanwhile, heat skim milk (or soy or rice milk) and bouillon in a saucepan, stirring until bouillon dissolves. Don’t boil or scald, just warm it.
  4. Mix starch and water until smooth. Add starch mixture to the milk, stirring constantly until it thickens to desired consistency.
  5. Combine everything into the soup pot.
  6. You may be tempted to puree all or some of the soup in your blender. If that's you're thing, go for it. The soup is also quite delicious as is. Add salt and pepper to taste.
