I got this potato soup recipe from my mother in law. We absolutely love it and it is very simple.You can, of course, decrease the cheese amount. I also add broccoli, carrots, corn, peas or any combination of those when I am in the mood. Very delicious, yet simple, soup.

Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 -8 medium potatoes
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup flour
6 cups milk
2 teaspoons chicken bouillon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 lb cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Peel, cube, boil, drain and "mush" potatoes to the consistency you like (I like them lumpy, but my kids like smaller pieces).
  • In separate pan, melt butter, add flour and cook while stirring for about a minute or so.
  • Add half the milk and stir until lumps are out of flour mixture.
  • Add remaining milk and on med-high heat, heat to a boil.
  • Stir almost constantly or it will scorch.
  • After boiling, turn heat off and add remaining ingredients.
