Creamy Oyster Soup Recipe

When sharing my shopping list for Aldi, I mentioned making oyster soup and a reader asked if I had a recipe. I do! Here is my Creamy Oyster Soup recipe you and your family’s enjoyment.
My recipe really only serves two. I make it for the toddler and I at lunch. There’s just enough left over for a small bowlful to enjoy later.
Chop your veggies small so they cook through faster, and you may omit the potato if you like, I simply feel like it makes it stretch a little bit more. So that being said, you could add another potato if you want it to go even further!
We really like canned oysters because they are soft and can be easily chewed. For the toddler’s sake I also cut them up into chunks. Regardless, we both love this creamy oyster soup and it’s especially good on cool days (which should be happening soon, sometime, it is nearly october after all… ANY day mother nature, I’m tired of sweating!).
