Cozy Potato-Vegetable Soup for Cold Nights

This is my recipe (in the loosest sense of the word) for potato-vegetable soup. I just came up with it one day and there is nothing complicated about it!

Hardware:
A large pot
A skillet
A large knife
A small paring knife
A wooden or plastic spoon

Software:
Olive oil
1 large white/yellow onion, finely chopped
2 stalks of celery, coursely chopped
2 cups chopped whole or baby carrots
1 Red Bell Pepper, coursely chopped
1 carton vegetable or chicken broth
2 cans of condensed potato soup
Salt
Pepper

Begin your soup by sauteeing the onion in olive oil until it just begins to turn translucent. At that point, add in the carrots and celery and cook until all of the vegetables are soft. (Be careful to not make the heat too high; the veggies shouldn't brown). Add in the pepper and the broth and bring the mixture to a simmer for about 20 minutes with a lid. Add in both cans of potato soup and mix thoroughly. Cover and allow to simmer for about 15 more minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste, toast up some bread, and enjoy! :)
