Sounds great but potatoes are a NO NO on Phase 1

Neither margarine nor milk (nor black pepper or salt) are on the "approved" list for early phases of fat flush. However, you can adapt this recipe to be P2 "ok" by making the potato a sweet potato and skipping the milk/margarine altogether (adding flaxseed oil AFTER the soup is in your bowl would help make up for the missing margarine). Use other P1 spices/herbs to replace salt/pepper. Dill & cayenne, perhaps. Or garlic, cayenne, and turmeric.

Lots of things wrong with this recipe for phase 1! You are not suppose to have milk, butter or potatoes. And i would be careful of anything canned due to the sodium content.
