I didn't have Yukon golds, so substituted just a regular russet potato. Next time, I would boil the potato, rather than microwave it. I think it would mash better that way, which in turn, would thicken the soup more. I wonder if canned potatoes would work too?

All in all though, this is tasty, and the vegetables stayed nice and crisp (the way I like them). Since it's been kind of chilly here in South Florida the past couple of days, this dish is just hitting the spot, and keeping me focused on my weight watching menu.

Thanks!!

* Feel free to substitute your favorite fresh vegetables like asparagus and broccoli for the red pepper. Or to save time, substitute 2 cups of frozen corn and 1 cup of frozen, diced bell pepper for the fresh corn and red pepper.
