Notes: Allyson made this soup for us years ago when she was visiting us. I used to love making it when I did weight watchers because a serving was only 4 points I think.
For fewer dishes, boil potatoes and drain and then soften onions in oil in the same heavy pan, add liquids and then add potatoes back in last. I mash the potatoes some as I stir.
