    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 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.
