2. drain potatoes
3. add a stick of butter ( I make a BIG pot full )
4. coursely mash potatoes
5. add sauted onions
6. add milk until a bit thinner than mashed potatoes
7. simmer until desired thickness ( add more milk if u want it thinner)
opt.... I like to add a little roasted/minced garlice or garlic powder too

Mine is the same, but will add finely chopped celery.

I like to add a bit of chicken boullion to the water too. Makes a good stock bask.

I cook the potatoes & chopped onions in chicken broth, just enough to cover. When done, add a stick of butter and enough milk to make soupy. Then I add a big chunk of Velveta cheese. If you want the soup thicker just add instant potatoes until the consistancy you like.

Into a 5-6qt crock pot:

5-6 cubed potatoes ( I don't peel them)
1 onion minced
2-3 stalks of celery chopped
2-3 carrots sliced
1 lb cooked bacon, chopped
salt
pepper
garlic powder (everything is better with!)

Barely cover with chicken broth and cook on hi until veggies are soft. Add 1 can of evap milk just before serving. If you want to thicken the broth, simply mash some of the veggie mixture and return to pot.

Here's a recipe that's a little different and really delicious --

4 cups chicken broth
4 cups potatoes, peeled and diced
1/4 cup onion, finely diced (I used 1/2 a medium onion)
1 tsp. Tony's (cajun) seasoning
8 oz. cream cheese

Cook potatoes, onions and seasoning over medium heat in broth until soft. Don't drain. Smash potatoes a little. Add cream cheese and cook over low heat until the cheese is melted.
