@sewfungramma: There are no stupid questions! I was confused when I first read this recipe too. No, you do not drain the potatoes. Keep the cooking liquid in the pot, otherwise the soup will have no liquid. Hope this helps! -- Editors of FaveHealthyRecipes

Hate to sound stupid, but do you drain the potatoes after cooking them? I really would like to make this as soon as possible. Love all kinds of soup and this one sounds great.

Many of our recipes are reader submitted, and therefore we do not have the exact nutritional information available - FaveHealthyRecipes Editors

Hi - I love the look of these recipes but have one complaint. Without nutritional data it is really hard to fit these into a calorie controlled diet. I printed some out but in order to use them I have to type them into a Weight Watcher site recipe builder to get calories and point values. Not everyone has such a tool available to them. I normally don't use any recipe which doesn't include nutritional values. Please add this info and make them truly useful to us all. They sound like great recipes. Best regards, Marie
