What's for Dinner Wednesdays - Cheesy Potato Soup!

So everyone in the house except Mr. D has been sick this past week :(  So we made some of my Mom's awesome cheesy potato soup.... the ultimate in comfort food to make us all feel better.

It took around an hour to make and is so worth the time!!

Ingredients:
1 small onion
2 Tb Butter
6 medium potatoes (or 3 of those large bake potatoes
4 cups water
2 cups milk
1 can of cream of chicken or cream of celery if you want vegetarian
1/2 tsp garlic salt
dash of pepper
12 oz of Velveeta Cheese


  • In a big soup kettle add butter and saute the onions until brown.




  • Add the 4 cups water, and potatoes that have been peeled and cubed to bite size.  Bring to boil.
  • Cover and simmer for 15 mins. (or until potatoes are tender)


  • Stir in milk, cream of chicken/or celery, garlic salt and pepper.  Heat throughly.



  • Cube cheese and add to the pot stirring until cheese is melted through the soup.



You can add some shredded cheese to top it off.  Mr. D likes to also add Bacon crumbles to his :)


ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!
