I add the potatoes cook couple minutes more.Then I add everything up to the salt/pepper. Bring to boil. And cook Vegetables. Once cooked I use my emersion blender and blend it all in pot. Even the bay leaves! I then stir in half and half. If you like things rich use cream then stir some grated marble. Topped with some cut green onions. We just love this soup! We have the PC Choice brand but this one is just as good!
